  • how about THERE IS NO GOD!

  • In news today: Gay homophobic guy becomes priest to escape his christian guilt bomb.

  • The last time I went to church they called me names and threw water over me - I never went back.

  • Hey pastor, ya, back in the day the Irish DID NOT let Italians pray together with them, in fact, they made them pray in the basement, another building, or not even on the same churches property. There is exclusivity in everything, people want to be as exclusive as they can. He is a moron.

  • so if i go into a church are they all pedophils

  • @cookjohn27 i was molested by my father as a child and now im 25 and am on food stamps.

    if i was one of the very small number of people molested by a priest during my childhood i would be a millionaire and the media would treat me like i was one of the only people ever molested because the think that child abuse doesn't happen unless its by a priest.

  • @ned262626 I believe you and I'm angry for you, and I hope you can report your father to the state and turn your life around!

  • that priest can not aswer even a simple question

    i can imagine aswering that of religion

    he is so out of his league on religion

    he is maybe good at repeting sermons over and over to mindless people

    but even a TV reporter can ask and ridicule him on live TV

    But again who can answer Religions questions and not look stupid

    Religion is dying because people is learning that those Bronze age beleives are lies made up to control people

  • 1) Fox is pro-segregation? What is this, the '50s?

    2) Did anyone else notice that poll added up to 105%?

  • I wonder why religion is so easy to report negatively on?

  • @GnarlyNewEngland because its negative ... #1 cause of brain damage

  • walk into a science classroom, They're all scientists? no, they're students, but see how even children learning about science are considered scientists to him. clearly he never set foot into a science class.

  • I love my God!

  • distant god was second and they put it fourth on the list!!!

  • It's not segregated, it's "separate but equal".

  • go in a science room and they're all scientist ... no they would be called students.

  • lmao "thats not the God of the Bible"...as if that's the only real religion and definite idea of God there is.

  • Imaginary god: 3%

  • A god of love who punishes? That's not love then...

  • lol at that faulty analogy of a science classroom only have scientists. this guy is dumb as a bag of rocks

  • TO ALL THE PEOPLE WHO AGREE WITH THIS PEDOPHILE: His point that begins at 0:43 is exactly the stupid shit religious people say and he purposely uses a STUPID analogy involving science as an ignorant undertone. And guess what? What does walking into a science room and it being full of scientists have to do with segregation? Are science rooms the one with actual, BLATENT, OBSERVEABLE segregation? So much so theres a story on it? Throw "science" out the ignorant cough up their 10%.

  • "Churches are the most segregated places in America."

    What else is new? Religion is a divisive mechanism that can be interpreted at will to fit anyone's preconceived notions, hence a new sect has arisen.

  • The Christian church..........struggling with facts for 2000 years!

  • It is pretty obvious Father John is gay... I wonder when he will come out of the closet after having sex with a crackhead gay prostitute.

  • white southern "christians" were also on the wrong side of history during the Civil Rights movement. They just couldn't overcome their racism to support the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

  • Church segregation started in the old days when white southern "christians" preachers used the bible to justify slavery.

  • God doesn't want division in His church but reality is, some people have preference to associate with people of their own kind. Can't change what's in people.

  • he is clearly a homosexual 02:10

  • Comment removed

  • god isn't any of those things, cause he isn't real

  • Why are Father John's examples for defending religion so... weak?

  • Walk into a science class... and they're all.. SCIENTISTS! lmao.. trust me.. i've taken a few science classes and i'm no scientist.. this guy is a moron

  • Islam is the true path to salvation....the true religion of oneness of God. There is no segregation in the Mosques and we don't have pictures of the Prophet. No wonder why Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world. Allah is the greatest and worthy of all praises.

  • @blaqsoldier No there's no segregation in the Mosques is there. Not based on colour anyway. Just that the women need to be separated from the men.

  • @krustofskie "No there's no segregation in the Mosques is there. Not based on colour anyway. Just that the women need to be separated from the men." No there is no segregation in the Mosque. Women pray with women and men pray with men, its that simple. The reason is to avoid temptation amongst sexes and to concentrate on worshiping God alone. The Mosque is not a dating place or a hookup spot therefore all these temptation is eliminated on both sides. God is priority number one in the Mosque..

  • Comment removed

  • @krustofskie So you reckon women preying with woman and men praying with men is not a form of segregation? I'm sorry to tell you that it is.

    I have been to a few different places of worship in my time and I have never felt any inclination to try and hookup with anyone in these places. I'm not even a believer but I would still not dream of trying to chat up a woman in these places as it would be simply disrespectful to those there to worship.

    Its called self control, we can all do it.

  • @krustofskie God knows best for what is good for us. Temptation is not a joke. You know very well how fragile we humans are. You speak of respecting others. Why can't you not respect our faith as it is?

  • @blaqsoldier I was not making a joke, I was just stating that as intelligent self aware creatures, we have the ability to control ourselves. I have also not show any disrespect to your faith. I have only questioned a portion of it and pointed out that it is, in fact, a form of segregation. I'm allowed my opinion on this and also to voice it, and I have done so without insulting anyone. I you have felt any offense to my words then that offense comes from within you and not from what I have said.

  • This just shows that when people are free of government meddling and this unnatural forced integration, they will always gravitate to others of their own kind. This whole integration/civil rights crap is just one big failure!

  • 3:55 - "God is bigger than any single label we give HIM". The irony...

  • Yeah, the main thing god is? Nonexistent.

  • This pastor has the intellectual depth of a mud puddle

  • I thik it is important to note the quote at 1:30 "going to church is the most segregationalist element of our lives today, as if it is a bad thing", yes you backwards xians, segregation is a BAD thing

  • Missed Church? That's OK. Fox News has got you covered!

  • White southern "christians" also used the bible to justify slavery.

    Check out Leviticus 25:44-46

  • Black people had to create their own churches, universities, sports leagues, magazines, etc because they were barred from "mainstream" white places.

  • @sgtpepper2345 But they'r enot forced into that now, so it does bring up the question why is this still going on today?

  • I was really expecting him just to point out how back in the day churches were segregated, and that even though its not enforced, because your often born into your church, and that traditions are at the heart of religion why its a very slow process of desegregation even with no ill intent.

    Being on fox i guess i shouldn't expect a rational defense just great spin work.

  • Talk about spin!

  • I love it! A Catholic priest saying that racism is a "Family value"

  • "Walk into a science classroom... Guess what? They're all scientists!"

    ....What?

    Ok, I didn't know when I took science in middle school that I was a scientist. Good news for me.

  • Anyone else notice the math fail? Distant God bringing up the rear at 24%, under benevolent god 22%? Fail 

  • I get it : God is so benevolent that he will torture you forever in a fiery pit if you dont think as he asks when you die , Its so obvious

  • Well...this fox station seems segregated in and of itself. Where is the Atheist side of this? Fair and balanced? I don't think that is their motto, but regardless, I thought reporting was supposed to show both sides and let the audience make up their mind.

  • God is alot more than one thing. God is nonexistent, not real, fictional, mythical, false, etc, etc, ETC.

  • oh,yeah! benevolent means sometimes:not saing a word against slavery,changing a repented pharao´s mind to go against hebrew people and send 2 bears to kill 42 kids for laughing at one of his prophets......oh yeahhhh,a good benevolent sexy sado god!!! Mmmmmmh

  • Only scientists take science class?

    Was there a space for "nonexistent god?" I guess that would be too negative.

    American churches are effectively segregated? Gee, there's a shocker.

  • God didn't say to Lot."...hey....youre ok...wonderful do whatever you want..." when he committed incest with his daughters? or when Abraham had sex with Hagaar while married to Sarah?? Jeezz, THAT is the God of the Bible.

  • That father looks like a gay porn actor.

  • eww religion!

  • Living in Norway, I find this clip incredibly provocative! This interview would NEVER have taken place, let alone getting aired here. Sure, there are some very religious people here too, but they are a tiny minority. Thank science. ;)

  • "If I live my life however I want and do bad things..."

    WTF??

    What about living your life however you want and helping people? This guy is insane.

  • Father says "Low" = pointing out facts about religion.

    Loving/Just God = Punishing every ancestor for thousands of years for the acts of a few.

    Facts = "bad reporting".

    How do you facepalm on comments??

  • its factual reporting father dickweed - segregation is a good thing?

  • holey shit. AIRTIME talking about the different personality traits of an invisible man?

  • Racism and religion, one can't do without the other.

  • @HybridD91 God is love? The Bible says love does not keep record of wrong doings lol, God does that. He fails to meet the not proud, angry, or jealous requirements too.

  • "Walk into a science classroom....guess what? They are all scientists!"

    FAIL

    Walk into a science LAB and you will find scientists of all shapes and colours, walk into a science CLASSROOM and you will find students and teachers of all shapes and colours, own goal assclown

  • @motile2 He thinks it's segregated since there are no clergy in there telling them how to do science.

  • "Religion is very easy to report on badly"

    I wonder why?... what an intellectual coward of a man.

  • "Critical god and Distant god, they're following and pulling up the rear."

    What? Distant God has fucking 24% you cretin. It's on second place. This is rediculous. Is it a mistake on his behalf or has Fox actually arranged the different gods in a way that makes it plausible? I mean, the second place god is by the bottom because it's the least "godish" god. What the hell am I even saying? This stupidity/dishonesty just irks me to no end.

    I would also want to smack the "religion contributor".

  • "Walk into a science classroom....guess what? They are all scientists!"

    Good example there father! You totally missed the point!

  • The churches have NO answers and this is a prime example of there empty worlds and inability to fill ppl with spirituality

  • Love thy neighbor...unless they're black.

    Seriously, watching this is painful.

  • Ahhh, Father Morris, Fox's go-to for religious apologetics.

  • Wtf.

  • "Walk into a science classroom and they're all...scientists!" FAIL

    Notice that "Whites can't enter" comes before "Blacks can't enter". There's a good WASP...

    Also notice that "Distinct God" is said to be at the rear...even though its the second most selected response. FAIL.

    "9 out of 10 Americans believe in God" [citation needed]

    "Love also means punishing"? This is why Christianity fucks up at every thing.

    "Religion is very easy to report on badly!" First sensible thing I've heard him say!

  • Why is it always, "I'll do just whatever I want and hurt other people", I don't believe in god, I do whatever I want, but I never want to harm other people.

    I just don't get why I would want to hurt others.  That makes no sense to me.

  • Why was "distant God", placed on the bottom of the list?

  • @Mglosk It's Fox. They've made worse statistics fails than this.

  • Ahh people in a science class would be students.

  • demolish churches-build schools

  • This will be the only time I'll ever agree with a religious spokesperson.

    I agree that it's all about your neighborhood, family, and friends. Like he said, it's important that no one is specifically excluded due to bigotry.

    A couple of minutes into the story, the typical Faux News discussion rears it's ugly head. They're back to the serious discussions of their superstitions, furrowing their brows while contemplating whether their imaginary sky daddy loves them or hates them.

  • Look at the chart at the 1:53 minute marker...I love how FOX news places "Distant God" as last when it should be 2nd, and verbally says that it's last! LOL

    I guess they don't like it when "Benevolent God" is 1% pt away from dead last!!

  • Look at the chart at the 2:03 minute marker...I love how FOX news places "Distant God" as last when it should be 2nd, and verbally says that it's last! LOL

    I guess they don't like it when "Benevolent God" is 1% pt away from dead last!!

  • White noise.

  • "9 out of 10 churches are segregated in U.S."

    "9 out of 10 Americans believe in god"

    This must be another internet law. Lets call it Foxy law, which presents whatever statement (supported or not) to be held by 9 out of 10 Americans.

  • Fox News, the stupidest place in America

  • lock up your little boys! Father John is on the prowl!

  • Is this a new comedy show from the states?, never laughed as much.

  • Why do they keep calling this catholic priest to talk about 'facts' ?

    How is he qualified to talk about HOW people think & how media should report ?

  • Oh great, they let father Johnathan out of the closet for another un-insightful opinion.

  • Why do I get the feeling that FOX News religion contributor Jonathan Morris desires  penises inside him?

  • that priest is so pretentious with that stupid collar

  • Few things... paraphrasing: "Spinning segregation as a bad thing is kind of low." Really...

    "Distant god pulling up the rear." Yeah, at 24%. That's 2% more than one of your previously mentioned categories.

    Baylor University... hmmm... *googles* "one of the USs top Christian universities." Go figure.

    "As we can look in the scriptures, god is love." Love is when you sell your daughter and stone homosexuals to death, clearly.

    "You can have a god of love who also punishes." Really? How?

  • God is not perceptibly self-evident which seems exactly like non-existent.

  • John Morris does it again. Ignores the initial question entirely.

  • Why are they talking about God on a national "news" channel as though he actually exists? I know, I know...it's Fox; still the unspoken assumption strikes me as a little odd.

  • Love means drowning all but 1 of your millions of children? Bleah.

  • @jursamaj 1 and his family, but eh who's counting?

  • OH GEE. could it bee that religion divides people instead of uniting them? Who woulda' thunk it then, that churches are the most segregated places in a country that has multiple competing religions.

  • hmm i didn't know science class room is an example of segregation, i guess this planet is an example of segregation. we need aliens =/

  • Why they ask this retarded priest as an expert. He is completely clueless.

  • Only right-wing douchebags would synonymize culture with race.

  • Sorry, but nothing a man in a white collar says can be taken seriously until the Catholic Church makes amends for it's purposeful and repeated cover up of child rape and the protection of child rapists.

    Then it would be nice if the former Nazi who currently heads the organization were to apologize for lying about the role of religion in Hitler's final solution and trying to somehow link the Holocaust with atheism.

    It would also help priests credibility if they didn't appear on Fox.

  • "Walk into a science class and they're all..um...SCIENTISTS!"

    That was just flat out retarded and has nothing to do with race relations.

  • Hey look a easy-fooled moron with a white, thing around his neck!

    He dresses funny and likes children...

  • @RiktigeKentsson I know this guy is like the most obvious pedo ever.

  • "religion is really easy to report on badly" maybe because religion is bad...?

  • what kind of "perspective" is this when there is only one side of the die here? where are the representatives for all the other 'gods' & beliefs out there? and which 'god' are we to automatically assume is the 'right one' by this guy being there? oh, yhwh because he is wearing a collar right? and who made this distinction? do the fox execs know something no one else has been able to confirm in the last 2000 years? finally, what? because it wasn't a parable it was "bad reporting"?

  • Father Morris always sounds like he's talking to 3rd-graders.

  • @Cainer666

    didn't he used to be an infomercial guy? from one BS job to an even greater one...

  • Why is the only kind of religious authority FOX Noise can offer always an ignorant, knowledge-free clown like this candy-ass Father butt-kiss?

    80% white is "segregated"? Come on!

    As an atheist I can only view this "issue" as another desperate way for religion to stay in the tabloids. It's so God damn BORING, they need such BS to keep it interesting.

  • "isnt it worrysome"

    hold that thought...

    yes, its worrysome that people on nationally televised "news network" are talking about this nonsense...

  • Damn straight I'm going to live my life how I want to.

    I want to live my life studying the fundamental laws of the universe. Problem?

  • 'God' was unavailable for comment.

  • STOPPED AT FIRST 'ARGUMENT.'

    "Walk into a science classroom and guess what, they're all scientists."

    This is the level of debate that predominates on american tv these days. Congrats.

  • father boyslammer sure is defensive. imagine what it must be like trying to argue this type of crap all the time.

  • I hate this priest.. he was on fox news..

  • @xFrozenmemories this is fox news dude...

  • What a twit.

  • ugh.. not father jonathan mars and his wildly zealous eyes just ready to spew religious nonsense

  • This priest is gay.

  • this priest talks to the two new reporters as if they're children

  • @soadfan Because in a sense, they are ;p

  • Wait, wait, wait... did he just try to equate race with occupation? What the fuck? Annd why the 9 out of 10 statistic at the bottom? What did that have to do with anything?

  • "I think we do have to be careful not to just get ourselves into a group that looks like us and not be open to others"

    Cue token "other" family sitting in the third pew on the left. See, this is bad reporting, clearly that one family = diversity. Clearly Churches are open and welcoming places...

  • Jonathan Morris is a retard.

  • The "father" is a cocksucker

  • churches are also the most xenophobic, homophobic, and education-phobic places. where is the surprise?

  • Oh the irony faux news talking about bad reporting.

  • Father Suit Wallstreet.

  • "Walk into a science classroom. Guess what, they're all scientists"....? I thought they were students. :s

  • @akrulla He wouldn't know, he probably tried his best to stay out of them!

  • Love the strawman....living my life how I please is equivalent to doing horrible things to people.

    How 'bout 'speaking to people in a LOUD whisper lends you credibility.

    praise cheeses.

  • also murdering....how positive.

  • If God doesn't have an real I.D., she/he better not go to AZ.

  • This priest is a fucking dolt.

    Spewing such claptrap one wonders why he is given a platform.

    All religions are bullshit anyway.

  • so much bullshit in 4min and 20 secs. Its a miracle!

  • At 1:07 he says 'adversity is a wonderful thing'.

    Lol, I think you mean diversity.

    Terrible science analogy too. Religion doesn't unite, ultimately, it's divisive.

  • I love the way you unceremoniously ended the clip, in mid-sentence of that other douche-nozzle.

  • that priest is an asshat. thats probably the reason why he fits so well in with the fox news crew.

  • lol wut with science classrooms?

  • acording to the priests logic churches are segrigated. most people in them are religius or pretending to be.

  • For a religion that pretends to speak for "God," they have no idea how to describe it...

  • @ljvillanueva they are not speaking for their "God" they are speaking for a guy called Todd;P

  • To follow Father Puppets logic:

    As we can read in the scripture God is love, but sometime love means genocide.

    So the 20th century was clearly the most love filled century ever!

  • What an amazing tool. Science classes are segregated because they're full of ... scientists. This man should be given a Ph.D. in drivel - even the concept and harm of segregation based on race appears to have eluded him. Nice 'fair and balanced' reporting from Faux News, too, with its wheeling in of only their pet collar-wearer. Utter, utter joke.

  • Talk about missing the point. Churches ROUTINELY view each other with suspicion and hate primarily because they frequently espouse different variations of doctrine. It's not unusual at all for them to be critical of each other and behave as if followers of different denominations aren't "true" Christians. Now, add race to the mix. See where I'm going?

  • He almost said that God was all four. :D

  • Classic! Oh it was just bad journalism, bad reporting .......

  • 1. I'm a middle-aged man. 2. Wearing a corporate image, suit & red tie. 3. With a multi-million-dollar contract. 4. On national TV. 5. In the 21st century. 6. Surrounded by cutting-edge technology. 7. Keeping a straight face. 8. Discussing fairies. Now, which _one_ of those eight points does _not_ fit the picture? Let me add the last two points: 9. Only in America. 10. On FOX News. And, ahhhh! It all falls into place! All 10 points are valid. It's quite a riddle.
  • Father Morris sounds drunk

  • @texasconnelly Nah, he's just high on self-delusion.

  • What a putz. Oh no those science rooms full of of of ..... SCIENTISTS.

  • fox news pays this 'father' for his opinions. just let that sink in for ya.

  • WAYS AMERICANS SEE GOD:

    Authoritative god: 0%

    Benevolent god: 0%

    Critical god: 0%

    Distant god: 0%

    Don't see god: 100%

    1, 648 deluded liars

    Baylor University.

  • Worship is a culturally dominated part of a person's life. The reason is simply black people enjoy a significantly different style of worship from that of white folks. Black people are welcome in white churches just as much as white people are welcome in black churches. There does not have to be some nefarious design behind these statitics.

  • I now feel dumber for watching this.

  • ...god is a lot more then one thing...

    yeah... a psychopat !

  • It seems that all preachers have a problem with feces flying out of their mouths when they speak.
