Somehow Cameron&#8217;s involvement in the &#8221; Left Behind&#8221; film  series made him a likely authority on this unusual event.Now I grant you that Cooper can often be tongue-in-cheek, but this didn&#8217;t seem to be one of those times. What was Cooper doing? Trying to take a shot at  those he sees as religious fanatics? Or maybe he is relying too heavily on the internet for a news story?However, Cameron handled <em>himself <\/em>well and brought his sense of humor to the conversation. It also seemed maybe he was there simply to  plug his latest film project, &#8220;Monumental&#8221;, a documentary that traces the spiritual  journey of some of our forefathers.You can find out more about that project at the end of the clip below.<object width=\"480\" height=\"385\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/OT-4gepNJYk?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\"><\/param><embed src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/OT-4gepNJYk?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"480\" height=\"385\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kirk Cameron dishes on dead birds, end times and his new film with Anderson Cooper.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":108,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fbia_status":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[6,7,3,2,30],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3766","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-celebrities","category-entertainment","category-movies","category-trends","category-video"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Kirk Cameron &#039;Monumental&#039;
