Obviously Jim doesn’t count as a Christian in the orthodox sense, but his movies seem to have a lot positive things in them.  Out of all the influences coming out of Hollywood, I think Carey’s one to not be worried about (Sandler, on the other hand, has issues with authority and structure).
My two cents.

While I enjoy listening to people when they start off talking about the Bible with, “I believe it means...”, I certainly wouldn’t build a theology off those statements!  (What’s scary is the number of Bible study groups I’ve been a part of that almost focus on what “I believe it means”.) And while I think Jesus would agree with Carrey that “loving like I love and forgiving like I forgive” are important, I also think he (Jesus) meant it when he said, “no one comes to the Father but by me”; and I believe I am correct in stating that the Greek preposition translated “by” or “through” carries the meaning of agency or means; in other words, you have to go through Jesus to get to the Father...pretty much a literal understanding of the English translation that Carrey doesn’t seem to care for.

Interacting with people who like to discuss “spiritual things” - including the Bible - can be very enjoyable.  It can also distract us from our task of making disciples if we allow ourselves to get bogged down.  Some people are more interested in the discussion than in the truth.  Carrey’s definition of truth, by the way, is quite interesting, in a dizzying sort of way:  “I believe in taking truth from whatever source you find it, and if it fits like a pair of old shoes and you feel like you’ve known it for your whole life when you hear it, then it’s the truth.” So if I’m supposed to “take truth” from somewhere, but I don’t know it’s the truth until I try it on for size and feel and comfort and familiarity...well, how do I know if it was true in the first place?  And isn’t there some truth that actually feels new and prickly and tight (kind of like that new pair of dress shoes that I bought, that didn’t feel comfortable until I’d worn them for a while)?

The fact that Jim Carey is willing to talk about spiritul things and the Bible is a wonderful opportunity for those Christians who have access to him.  I know some of the things he says seem contrary and Randy you pegged it.  Jim is still influenced by the way the world thinks about religion and spirituality.  Peter gives the right word for Jim - “pre-believer” - which makes this a wonderful insight into evangelism.  May God move Jim to discover the real truth - Jesus Christ.

Jim is like a lot of people out there, open to “spiritual things”, seeking experiences, but picking and choosing truth according to what feels good and very wary of organized religon.

I think he typifies our missional challenge.
