Scottish actor JAMES MCAVOY gave up a career in Catholicism because he was not willing to sacrifice relationships with women.
The Last King of Scotland star dreamed of a career in the church but stopped practicing the religion when he realised what was at stake.
He says, "I considered becoming a priest very seriously. I wanted to travel the world and, as a young Catholic, it seemed the easiest way.
"By the time I turned 16 I realised I was only in it for selfish reasons, and there were easier ways to explore the world. And, more importantly, I didn't want to sacrifice the ladies!"
