Nathan Fillion Religion:

  Nathan Fillion attended ‘the holy trinity school’ which was a catholic school. Despite this, he is a non religious person and feels uncomfortable talking about it. He feels insecure talking about topics like religion, politics and money in an open manner and thus remains obscure from the limelight. Fillion tweeted on 30th October, 2014 saying ‘I love this Pope’, suggesting that he might have a religious side too. Yet, we know too little to be certain.

Even though Fillion wishes to be discreet with his religious and political views, he does seem to open up, just a little bit at times. During the 2012 US elections, Fillion voted for Obama. This was apparent in the tweets that he would put up at that time, calling Republican party candidate, Mitt Romney, a ‘slimy, lying toolbag’.
