Kirk Cameron is once again sharing his conservative beliefs.

The religious actor took to his Facebook page this week to slam Sunday's Grammy Awards, which featured a moving performance of Macklemore and Ryan Lewis' "Same Love" in which 33 couples (both gay and straight) got married.

"How did you like the Grammy's all out assault on the traditional family last night?" the 43-year-old wrote in a post that has since been taken down from his page. Cameron then went on to hawk his new film Mercy Rule.

"As a husband and father, I am proud to announce the release of my new family movie, MERCY RULE," he wrote. "Last night, the lines were drawn thick and dark. Now more than ever, we must work together to create the world we want for our children. I'm hoping that just as Fireproof restored marriages, MERCY RULE will strengthen families. You told me on Facebook how you wanted to see MERCY RULE, and I heard you. That's why Family Christian stores and I are giving it to you now. Just the way you want it."

He ended the message with, "May God bless you and keep you and I can't wait for you to tell me what you think."

Cameron's anti-LGBT message isn't shocking considering the fact he continually makes headlines for sharing his conservative views. Back in March 2012, he began a storm of controversy when he told Piers Morgan that gay marriage and homosexuality were "destructive to so many of the foundations of civilization."

"Marriage is almost as old as dirt, and it was defined in the Garden between Adam and Eve," he said. "One man, one woman for life till death do you part. So I would never attempt to try to redefine marriage. And I don't think anyone else should either."
