The \u201cFull House\u201d alum said Bure was the \u201cclosest thing\u201d she had \u201cto a sister\u201d during an appearance on \u201cThe Moment\u201d podcast <\/a>earlier this week. <\/p>\n \u201cCandace\u2019s faith, to be quite honest, has always been at the forefront for her, and I have zero problem with that,\u201d Sweetin, 43, explained. <\/p>\n Sweetin \u2014 who has been an outspoken champion for liberal causes<\/a>, while Bure has been open about her faith \u2014 also acknowledged her opposing values with Bure, 48. <\/p>\n Jodie Sweetin commented on her opposing beliefs with former co-star Candace Cameron Bure.

For me,\u00a0standing up to say\u00a0that how we treat other humans because they\u2019re different from us is completely unacceptable. And I\u2019m pretty sure that is what Jesus would\u2019ve said, but what do I know? I\u2019m not a Christian.\u201d<\/p>\n Sweetin confessed she\u2019s \u201cbeen loud\u201d with her opinions and said Bure has \u201ckept a little more quiet\u201d when it comes to politics.
