Reality star, Leo DaSilva openly criticizes believers who refer to their pastors with titles like “Daddy,” “spiritual father” and others, sparking mixed feelings from social media users.

In a post on the social media platform X, Leo expressed concern over such expressions, calling them a “read flag.”

“My Daddy, ‘My Spiritual Daddy,’ ‘my father in the Lord’ to describe your pastor is a red flag,” Leo wrote, questioning the need for such intimate labels for religious leaders..

In a follow-up post, Leo clarified that his two-year journey through theology school was a personal pursuit to understand scripture more deeply.

He stressed that a genuine love for God should inspire individuals to seek knowledge independently, rather than relying on others for their faith.

“I went to theology school for 2 years, not because I want to become a pastor but to understand the word of God even more.

“If you claim to love God, you will try to learn about God yourself. It’s like saying you love someone you don’t even know. Don’t be a sheep to everything.

Leo’s remarks have sparked mixed reactions, with some fans applauding his stance on independent faith exploration, while others defend the affectionate titles as an expression of respect.
