  • hey its called separation of church and state! not all people are Christian

  • Rick Perry is scum, freedom of religion necessitates freedom FROM religion. Perry would probably have denigrated Jefferson simply for being a Deist.

  • America isn`t going in the right direction this way.. The image we get here in Europe is that the people in USA don`t really have an idea what they exactly want. And Perry...? He`s just another of those idiots, did he hear anything about sexual abuse by christians in schools?

  • @floridaboy22 atheists used to be hated and persecuted in our country. Now it's the gays everyone is after. I'd call not being able to be happy and get married like everyone else a sacrifice. I'm sorry if you feel that way cuz i know Christian traditions are fading but it's not only you. People who arent christians deserve to be happy and have the same rights as everyone else. Thats why separation of gov. and religion was created because our founding fathers were geniuses in wanting to avoid ig

  • 1:01 "organisations of faith, that we're not gonna support you with federal dollars" well why the fuck should government give you money??? hey, if you get some I want some too. I don't get any, I PAY tax. Organisations of Faith should too. Otherwise I'll go start my own faith and say screw you to the taxman.

  • This guy is almost worse than Bush, almost..

  • @MrDanielbrodd they're literally the same person haha

  • yeah damn those left wing liberals and their new age views on open mindedness and national acceptance. Damn their attributes and tenancies, and their homosexual supporters. We would never agree with their views or lie to our countrymen. Thats why we're Christians and right for all society.

  • By religion

  • WHO GIVES A FUCK??? A presidential candidate should not bind his or her candidacy, nor the presidency (should they win it).

  • judging by the amount of dislikes on this video I'm gonna assume no one will vote for him

  • Where does the GOP find these nutjobs?

  • What a bigot

  • Although I am not christian and not a part of it, my school has a Fellowship of Christian Athletes club. I performed Christian christmas pieces (along with a Jewish piece) in my school's orchestra for our winter concert. Both of these totally voluntary and not forced upon yet not banned or organized by my school. What were saying about Christmas and praying in school? You sit are a complete and total idiot. Good luck falling off the ignorant right side of the cliff.

  • CLEARLY he has no idea what he's saying. 

  • Separation of church and state bitch.

  • This guy almost seems likable compared to Santorum.

  • @BackInTheCage All of the GOP candidates should be in a padded room wearing straight jackets, not in suits and ties running for the leader of one of the most powerful nations on Earth.

  • Rick Perry would prefer a world in which you had no freedom from 'his' religion. This from the same idiot who had this to say about the BP oil spill: “From time to time there are going to be things that occur that are acts of God that cannot be prevented.”

  • if this guy makes it to the white house he'll make bush look like a genius

  • religion is what is fucked up in this world fuck the gay fag :3

  • Does he know that there are people that aren't Christian?

  • @mattwypacostacos Yeah, they're those damn liberals and gays and...Obamers.

  • Gosh I do not like conservative christians

  • What a douchebag. And that's an insult to Douchebags. Freedom of Religion DOES SO also mean freedom FROM Religion. The time anyone - I don't care what denomination or faith-- Tries to force 'their' Religion on me, is the time they have a serious problem.

  • How much do you wanna bet that if Islamic people were allowed to pray to Allah in school, that Rick would be the first to have a problem with that.

  • ...seems legit

  • billions of people pray in school all the time, your just making thing up jerk off!!!! your making gay people look bad!!!!!

  • Kids CAN pray all they want in school. It just can't be organized by the school. And... what is wrong with that?

    Kids CAN celebrate christmas all they want in any area. It just can't be organized by the school in a religious way. And... what is wrong with it?

    Seriously. This guy saying they CAN'T do something as it is illegal to practice blablabla- it is a flat out lie. A flat out lie. Just like the lie that our children will be FORCED to learn about homosexuality. Why all the right wing lies?

  • Newsflash, Perry, not everyone in the United States is a christian or a catholic. I am a catholic but am offended by this. Children are given the right to celebrate Christmas outside of school. The First Ammendment states that there is freedom of religion. Not just for christianity, but for ALL religions. So, if you find it okay for kids to celebrate Chirstmas in school, then don't be offended by other religions celebrating their holidays as well.

  • God is pretend. 

  • Don't bring Catholicism into your dumbass ads

  • if only I had a dollar for every time I had to share that arguments the children are somehow not allowed to pray and not allowed to celebrate Christmas… Silly me, here I thought I just had something to do with leading the entire class in doing the same… Good thing we have such intellectuals like Rick Perry to help us out with these little "misconceptions"…

  • I really do wish that insanity was somehow an indicator that a person should not be eligible to lead a country…

  • Rick Perry made 417 accounts and like this video

  • Actually at my school I see kids praying at the flag pole once in a while. (Not that I approve. Praying is like asking a brick wall to do your taxes.) Also my earth science class had a christmas party with sweets and a white elephant and everything. Rick Perry needs to get his facts straight.

  • No freedom from religion? Is it illegal to be atheist now?

  • Children are allowed to pray in school. As long as they aren't forcing a whole classroom to do it. I have several Christian friends who pray before they eat lunch and our administration doesn't frown upon it. We're not even a religious school. I think this guy is confused. But he can believe what he wants, I just won't vote for him.

  • I am a Christian and I hate this video.

  • I don't care if an American soldier is gay, straight, or sideways! If somebody is willing to lay their life down for their country, they're got my respect.

  • @CaptainAwesomeoh13 he isn't downing it, he is using it as an example to compare how its ok for someone to say buddah or say gay, but when you say Jesus, people are like OMG!!!

  • dear rick perry,

    we dont believe your bullshit, christians are argumentative, or verbally abusive. we call those EXTREMISTS. and every religion has them, and its the main reason you idiots who believe in god are LOSING people.

    if you honestly think this ad will give you good press, then please share whatever it is you are smoking, because i want some.

  • If you listen closely, you can hear his Texan stuttering. He knows the ad was wrong, he knows hes wrong for doing it and making it and he's especially wrong for completely defying the laws of Christianity completely. Christianity taught people to love everyone, and other religions including Judaism. Why do you think god forgives us when we apologize for our sins? Because he loves everyone. Everything that Rick perry has said about gays, religion or anything about church and state is just way of

  • @appleguyforeternity You just made the most important point. He just gets to apologize for his sins, like this interview and his ad .. and he is forgivin. Nice. He is acting like an unruly child, let's flip open the book here ... aha ... stone him to death ... now that's a book. "I like your Christ I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ." Ghandi.

  • Well at least we know Perry won't toss aside his personal beliefs to get elected. Have to have a little respect for any politician that does that now days (hint hint, Romney, Obama). Even though that ad is horribly put together. It's a shame because he has a point to an extent about anti-religious bigotry, but the ad just makes him seem like a nutjob.

  • what a retard.

  • Children can't celebrate Christmas? Well I'm pretty damn sure kids are able to celebrate Christmas in and out of school. In my school we can talk about Christianity all we want, and we don't get in trouble by teachers. We even wear Santa hats the day before break. Think what you want Rick but honestly, is what your saying really true?

  • I'm pretty sure that rick perry doesn't give a crap about religion. because I know some Christians, and what they told me about Christianity is the exact opposite of what rick perry is saying. SO SHUT UP AND GTFO RICK PERRY!

  • I'm not ashamed to admit that I don't care much about religion, but you don't need to be eating pork every

    Sunday to know there's something wrong with this country when people can send homophobic messages and our children are listening to those messages.

    I'm not asshole Rick Perry, and I approve of this message.

  • Well shit. Yknow I go to a private school and I don't care or honestly believe in God.

  • fuck my mind is strong!

  • I'm a tenth grader in public school and people can pray if they want. We had an exchanged student that did I think 2 times a day. There is nothing stopping us from saying "thank god" or anything of that sort. We obviously don't celebrate xmas in school. Want to know why? EVERYONE IS NOT A CHRISTIAN. Wow, what a surprise to know everyone doesn't believe in Jesus!

  • Mr. Rick Perry, I think i've figured it out, you're an ignorant fool like every other religious person.

  • Those same Catholic groups are in Africa taking away condoms from people in need of them and replacing them with an old book of fairy tales. Why should any funding from a government go to support that?

  • You can pray in school a teacher or administrator just can't lead everyone in it -_____-

  • SHUT UP RICK YOU GAY

  • I've thought it about it in the manner of how offensive it is to gays, but I just realized how shitty that is to everyone who isn't a christian, like christainity is like the country's religion or something. What an asshole.

  • Faith made America strong?

    Hmm... ask the natives -

    Oh, wait, they died when explorers came over to discover land and spread Christianity and ended up killing basically all the natives with war and disease. Hmm....

    Strong Faith -_-

  • i believe in god but i hate ppl like perry who always care about church and totally live strikt by the bibel

  • WHAT THE FUCK

    He thinks that the government 'not supporting' the church 'with federal dollars' is an attack on religion. Ahem. Secular Government. that is all.

    If this guy is elected im ditching to mexico.

  • They can't celebrate Christmas? Riiiiiight.... that explains why the American president lights light a CHRISTMAS tree, and sing CHRISTMAS carols....

  • Last I checked kids vould pray in school..... My high school had a Cristians Atheletic Club for christian kids in a sport, they prayed before every meeting and after. fuck this lier. Ron Paul please or WW3

  • Why does he look and talk just like George W. Bush when answering questions? That same dumbfounded wannabe-innocent-look.

  • Damn spell corrections :(

  • @ThePimV

    A. I meant I'm not gay, not that I'm against gays or gaydom.

    B. That was a really "dumb" analogy. I said dumb because I will be screamed at if I say retarded.

    C. That's not true where I live. Saying god bless America gets you sent to the principal here.

    D. That statement just made you a hypocritical. Congratulations.

  • idiot.

  • Fucktards of the Teabagger party lie incessantly and pretend they are victims

  • This guy is a fuck head.. i've been SLAPPED and told christ compells me in a PUBLIC school. HNo, we can't pray

  • Also, there is a reason why 'organisations of faith' are not supported by the US government, if they where to do so they would be BREAKING THE AMERICAN CONSTITUTION! Christ I'm English and I know more about your goddamn constitution than you do you brain dead fuck.

  • You can't talk about healthcare you stupid republican cunt, you oppose any form of universal healthcare and back the corrupt system that ruins so many people's lives!

  • He's like an even stupider version of Sarah Palin.

  • Who the fuck said we can't celebrate Christmas?

    Rick Perry=A dumbass

  • Rick Perry, you will never be President. Face it. Get over it. Move on.

  • i do hate rick parry but did you know in the u.s. you can be killed in some places for practicing religion. so he has kind of a point. other than that he can go fuck himself.

  • Listen Rick Perry, politics are politics and religion is religion. Don't mix them.

  • lolol he's so wrong traditional christianity has he put's it in America is not Catholicism but Protestant/Presbyterian.

  • Actually no offence to kind Americans faith did not make USA strong the brittish and Spanish did. people say Obama is the Antichrist I think rick perry is so vote Obama he is epic

  • FUCK YOU DICKHEAD PERRY!

  • This dude is such an idiot. How can he be governor let alone running for president?

  • Second of all there's nothin wrong with gays in the military , just because they are they love the same gender does not mean there any diffverent than anyone else ,

  • This guy is a waste of everyones damn time if he wanted to be president he would be trying to be help people who are living bad conditions and who don't have enough money to buy food ect , not all this religious bullcrap . Don't get me wrong in do not have a problem with religion , but religion should never be brought into politics . First of , kids can pray at schools as it dosn't affend anyone because everyone has a diffverent religion or no religion at all , second of there's nothing wrong w

  • yes..... christian obama, and homosexual rape preditor catholic priests. Im lost.....

  • I'll fight against the Union for the Confederate States of America and The Republic of Texas. -Rick Perry

  • Perry is not a candidate! Its a platipus

  • @Viguene

    I find this offensive to platypodes

  • What happened to freedom from religion? Why is he pushing his closed minded redneck beliefs on all of us? The country is moving past the ignorance of men like this because we had to deal with it from 2000-2008 and were sick of it. We can all not vote for him, but either way, he will still win. Votes don't count, money does.

  • Wise words from a wise man.

  • @ZhakoT I hope your kidding... He couldnt even prove his own point.

  • what a twat

  • well rick perry is an idiot. U can pray in schools. at least in public schools, but nobody ever does it. Having gays serve openly in the military is great and i kid u not this isnt the first time theyve been in there. While rick perry is sitting his ass down at home, you have the gay men and women that are fighting for his fucking life and he still doesnt like that. And also i hate when ppl quote the bible as a reason for them not to like gays. That gets on my fucking nerves!

  • I'm slightly worried that this man became Governor, forget the fact that he's running for president. "Freedom" I guess.

  • is he trolling?

  • @godwin1020 No, Perry is just stupid.

  • he has a good heart but he shouldn't be our president

    RonPaul2012

  • @Emil652 Fuck Ron Paul

  • You can pray in school. Nobody ever tried tobar kids from praying. They just don't FORCE them to pray, and banning gay men in the military? That is only excused by prejudice, not any kind of rational thinking.

  • He wonders why no one wants him in the White house....

  • Just think: Some people really believed that this man could lead our nation. Mother of god....

  • He doesn't even know how to defend himself. What an asshole.

  • Geez Rick, not everyone in America has a faith or religion. I speak for many when I say this: That video is extremely offending

  • Sure, I am a Christian and I don't agree with gays or kids banned from praying at school. That's not a war on religion, not a war on Christianity, and it's certainly not Obama's fault. If you wanna pray at school, go to a nice Catholic school like me. If your gay, your own decision. Not in Rick Perry's hands and the American people shouldn't put it in his.

  • @TheCrazyCreeper767

    why are you against gay's. wtf is that...

    are you also against people writhing with a left hand. or people with blue eye's because that is just as stupid.

    kids can still pray at school but they need to go to a spefic room. why is that problem.

    i dont get homophobes are sad sad people.

  • My question for Rick Perry would be, what if a Muslim wanted to pray openly to Allah in school, or a Jew celebrate Hanukkah openly in school. Would he be as quick to defend them? After all, a "War on Religion" is a war on all religions, no? I just think it's silly that he feels Christians are so victimized in this country. True, there is some adversary, but not so much as to complain about it so fervently.

  • @Glareth I just consider all the Christians who get killed and tortured for what they believe in in other countries, and I bet even they don't complain as much as we do in this country! And I hate how if there is something that somebody doesn't like, it's automatically a "War on (fill in the blank)". I mean really? Such an extreme term that is so loosely tossed around for much smaller issues.

  • what schools are you going to?

  • Freedom of religon also means the right not to be religous.

  • If Rick parry becomes president that shows how stupid some Americans are and how desperate they are for a "bush" like president. History is doomed to repeat itself soon and if this guy wins the election i will say to hell with school, as an atheist I enjoyed an environment where schools weren't allowed to talk about religion in depth in the classroom to keep people on equal levels and not to offend anyone. I don't believe in politics and it's only because of people like him...I guess a lot of p

  • Perry you bigoted piece of shit.

  • watching this

    good damit this is boring

    see video suggestions "brave kitten stands up to a dog"

    OOOHHHH :)

  • Republicans and Christians (the ones who want to force their religion) are retarded

  • If god is omipotent and all powerful the why would he make suffering? Homosexuality os sinful (apparently) but he made them didnt he? Why make something just so he could hate and punish it? The only explanation is that homosexuality isnt a sin OR god doesnt exist. And that sir is why im atheist and liberal. I cant stand the cruel ways of religion. Religion creates hate and discrimination and war! I hope one day we are all atheist or we learn to accept each other not be full of hate like rick pe

  • wow... what a douche.

  • "The Catholic Bishops with there great concern for this administration.."

    The Catholic Bishops also had a great concern to use Condoms, eat Shell fish....

    Go to Alaska and take Sarah Palin as you wife!

    (But when you see the dislikes for this video, you see that America is changing!)

    love it!

  • @MrRibSouthAfrica

    Well its not only americans watching and voting on youtube videos...

  • @bresophil True, but I hope that plenty of Americans don't like this Add.

    We don't want to have another Bush!

    Time; that the so called "free Country" puts a little more effort in to understand others and accept people for what they are to become a free country.

  • I don't live in the US but: PLEASE SUPREME BEING!! ANYONE BUT RICK PERRY!!

  • @Sushiwubber

    you sure? Michelle Bachmann? Rick Santorum? etc...

  • U mad liberals? hehe.

  • Obama 2012

  • Comment removed

  • The worst part is that he actually seems to make sense when he's talking. I wouldn't be surprised if the american population turned out to be gullible enough to vote for him.

  • @joshmathil

    I'M GAY AND PROUD OF IT! :P (and yes, I totally just stuck my tongue out at you!)

  • @simmy13131313

    come on, give him a break. it's a 15yo kid. he'll grow up eventually ;)

  • @bresophil

    Ok, ok. :)

  • @IamaFreeWillOffering

    Pleas shut up. You have no idea what you're talking about, and we don't need your homophobic crap on here.

  • 1: America is NOT a Christian nation!

    2: Religious freedom applies to ALL faiths (or the choice not to have a faith at all)!

    3: Umm... kids CAN pray in school AND celebrate Christmas (not sure where he got that from...)

    4: Ok, f this. We can all pretty much agree that Rick Perry is an idiot (CLEARLY an idiot! lol)

  • Fuck...Rick...Perry...

  • What a fucking moron. America needs to separate religion and politics totally or will be the death of us all

  • This guy is talking out of his ass. He doesn't know wtf he's saying.

  • If a politician would go as far as even mentioning religion in a debate in Europe, he would have lost the election that very moment. It's crazy how the USA are officially a secular country but in the last 10 years or so (thanks G.W.!) turned into an inofficial theocracy. Those crazy fuckers are everywhere. In politics, the economy, education (or rather in a fight against education), the media, culture, everywhere!

  • Rick Perry is a complete and total idiot not to mention bigoted.

  • Oh for fuck's sakes!!!!! Kids can still pray in school! BUT teachers cannot lead prayer or force prayer, as that is an endorsement of a specific religion.

  • Plain and simple Rick Perry is right!!! Gays can be in the military but you cant pray in school...Plain and simple!!!

  • @bluegadget30: Er, yes, you can pray in school. You just can't force anyone to pray in school.

  • @bluegadget30 You can pray in school. You know why you have a moment of silence after the pledge of allegiance? That is for people to say whatever prayer they want. You cant be FORCED to pray, but you can pray in school any time you want to. Nobody is stopping you from praying. Why should we stop gay people from serving in the military?

  • 'but not freedom FROM religion' ... that right there ... LOL!

  • God wants us to behave logically. It is perfectly fine to have an atheist President.

  • BTW is there a ron paul interview with that anchor? i'd like to see that

  • "how is that obamas fault?"

    "i'm just giving you some examples"

    lol

  • We dont need religion in politics we need smart people!

  • Wouldn't we all be better served if Perry went back to Texas & continued praying for rain?

  • i bet he owns slaves

  • I wonder if that judge was appointed by Obama. I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't.

  • He says homosexuality is wrong but Jesus had 2 dads did he not? Billions of years and natural selection. Impossible! Six days and magic bread man who grants wishes. Of course! Religion is just a fight between people to see who has the best imaginary friend. God loves u but if u dont believe in him u burn in torturous agony for all of eternity but he still loves u

  • Wtf who the hell does he think he is? I hate antigay proreligious bastards like him! Kids dont need to be influenced by religion at an early age when they are likely to convert. They should be allowed to choose as they please. And there is nothing wrong with gays. I HATE RELIGION AND I HATE REPUBLICANS. Religion is what causes innocent slaughter and discrimination. Im not afraid to say im Christian? Hey dumbass 90% of america isnt afraid either.

  • rick perry, what the fuck is wrong with u? IDIOT!!!

  • ladies and gentleman i do believe we have found the singularity.

  • I agree with the comment below me.

  • Yaknow, regarding open prayer in schools and such, just to clue you in on something, Jesus wasnt actually a fan of public displays of faith and righteousness. In fact he specifically called them hypocrites, and said to speak to god in PRIVATE, behind closed doors. Matthew chapter 6, if you're wondering...

  • hahaha Rick Perry wasn't even invited to his own school's christmas party

  • those cliche election videos are always so cheesy.

  • i cant even bare to watch this whole video. its just ridiculous

  • jesus had two dads!

  • Logic is stronger. Think, people.

  • I used to be catholic like you, but then I took a priest in the ass.

  • @123LDJ123  I used to be an atheist like you, but then I took an arrow in the knee.

  • @Stipoon You just copied my but took the creativity out of my joke.

  • @123LDJ123 no I didn't

  • @123LDJ123 oh my god. This is the best meme variation of "arrow in the knee" I've ever seen lol

  • @123LDJ123 HAHAHA AWESOME

  • In the bible it states that God created heaven and Earth in two days and created the sun and stars in just one day, where is the logic in that?

  • No, it's not wrong to supress gay rights, te bible teaches very clearly we r ment to mate with female and male, it talks about that city Abrahams cousin (I think it was his cousin) went into the city which was sinful, there were lesbians and gays everywhere and god punished that city for there wicked ways. And if u think it's ok uve been corrupted by the world to think it is when it is clearly not

  • @levi10102 We don't live by the law of the bible. We live by the U.S. Constitution in this country.

  • Atheism: Minute particle forms from nothing and explodes creating universe.

    Christianity: God creates the Heavens and the Earth.

    There is no logic to atheism. Rick Perry is an idiot, but he's absolutely right here. It's wrong what's happening--not that gays are bad, but that religion is constantly being censored out of life. It's wrong to suppress gay rights, but it's also wrong to censor religion.

  • @TheJerkNextDoor "Atheism: Minute particle forms from nothing and explodes creating universe."

    I'd just like to pause there, to allow you to try and grasp how stupid that was. You do realise that the term "atheist" describes a lack of belief in God? It in no way entails that all atheist believe in the Big Bang Theory. And regarding science, the Big Bang Theory is not a definitive answer to the creation of the universe, rather a guess, which is supported by decades worth of evidence.

  • We need an atheist president! for fuck's sake. The internet, where religion comes to die. Let's be real and rise up with logic and truth and start a productive world. Staying in this fucking hole is getting us nowhere. ATHEISM and logic ftw.
