Aaron Rodgers has been estranged from his family members for years, and now they are reportedly appalled by comments he previously made about his religious upbringing to girlfriend Danica Patrick.

The Green Bay Packers quarterback admitted he has struggled to believe in a higher power on Patrick's "Pretty Intense" podcast last month. Now, a source told People Rodgers' family is offended by his religious comments.
"They were dismayed," a source told the magazine. 
"To them, his comments are basically a slap in the face to the fundamentals of who they are."

"I don't know how you can believe in a God who wants to condemn most of the planet to a fiery hell," Rodgers continued. "What type of loving, sensitive, omnipresent, omnipotent being wants to condemn his beautiful creation to a fiery hell at the end of all this?"

The star quarterback added that religion can cause a divide.
"Religion can be a crutch," Rodgers continued, according to the magazine. "It can be something that people have to have to make themselves feel better. Because it's set up binary, it's us and them, saved and unsaved, heaven and hell, it's enlightened and heathen, it's holy and righteous...that makes a lot of people feel better about themselves."

The tension between the professional football star and his family was highlighted on a previous season of "The Bachelorette" when his estranged brother, Jordan Rodgers, was competing for JoJo Fletcher's love.

Rodgers reportedly stopped communicating with his family near the end of 2014, around the time he began dating actress Olivia Munn.
