Kirstie Alley Calls Leah Remini 'A Bigot' For Attacking Scientology [VIDEO]

Kirstie Alley blasted Leah Remini as 'a bigot' for attacking Scientology, The Huffington Post reported Friday.

Alley appeared on "The Howard Stern Show" as she promotes her new television show. The former Cheers actress is returning to the small screen in Krisite. However, in recent years, Alley has been a prominent defender of her religion, Scientology. She confessed to joining because of her "destructive" ways in her youth. She was angered by the controversy surrounding her faith.

"I think that is the most repulsive thing a person can do, attack another persons faith," Alley said when asked if she feels persecuted in Hollywood for her beliefs. "Because a faith is what you look to to have hope, and is what you look to help other people, and I just think it's really wrong."

Alley also directed her ire at Remini. The King of Queens actress defected from the religion over the summer. She has since been vocal about what she felt were negative practices by the religion such as not being able to question higher ups.

"When you are generalizing, and when your goal is to malign and to say things about an entire group -- there are tens of millions of scientologists in the world -- when you decide to blanket statement, 'Scientology is evil,' you are my enemy," Alley said.

Alley also added that she had blocked Remini on Twitter.

"She's a bigot," Alley said. "If someone was out there [attacking your religion], would they be your friend? They wouldn't be mine ... It's not selective, I just won't have people in my life that are [bigots]."
