  • A surprisingly insightful analysis of the role of religion in political discourse.

  • Too bad I'm an atheists because hell would be a perfect place this Father Morris.

  • looooool christianity is used ? only when its against the fox news anchors

  • Ironically, Jesus is one of the most liberal characters ever.

  • Father Morris looks like he really could do with losing his virginity.

  • Lol...... Can only happen in America... Land of oppertunitys (for rich Retards) :P

  • Fuck Gawds will ! Gods will is bullshit !

  • I love religious people. They believe in an all powerful, wise omnipotent being... and then claim to know its will and what it wants. Methinks such piety may be a bit contradictory.

  • omg, the fact that this guy is a priest scares me. looks like he's sold himself out for the sake a bit of fame and fox news.

  • y do people try to create a culture of religious intolerance...

    have some respect for the religious founders of our nation...

    without their struggles and sacrifices... THERE WOULD BE NO 300 million person country here.... reality is a bizalch isn't it?

  • @iamborghini1 What are you talking about? The founders struggled to keep church & state separated; they would be ashamed of the country their heirs live in. And, unless by "founders", you mean Cristobal Colon, there was going to be a country here no matter whether religion was involved or not.

  • that guy is bat shit crazy

  • @ottopotomas I don't think much of him but he's not that bad, compared to some. Go check out Pastor Manning's YouTube vids and interviews if you want to see what batshit really looks like.

  • Only Republicans can use religion for politics, derrrr

  • so jesus did not want us to take care of each other?

  • Father's voice just went up 3 octaves!

  • Religious leaders should have no pull when it comes to politics, Church and State are supposed to be separate! Plus I don't want the President or any leader for that matter depending on their god when the shit is about to hit the fan!

  • "Is it fair to use religion to drum up support for a political reason?"

    Fox Business doesn't see the irony of bringing a priest on their show to talk about it?

  • Holy shit!!! It's Luke Skywalker!!!!

  • Ooookay, cagedchild, you can think that, however, the rest of us would actually like to have a more accessible health care system... Like the rest of the civilized world.

  • Fr. Jonathan Morris is full of it

  • The Lord Jesus Christ and Our Creator are the only source of protection of my body and that of my family that I can accept. I have faith that the body that God has designed for me is flawless, if I should fall ill then it is my fathers plan for my life which I accept. To interupt the natural process of "God's will" would go against my faith. To ask of me to do otherwise will be asking me to "Give up faith in God". "Healthcare is not mandated to be accepted in my fathers kingdom".

  • @cagedchild You don't actually have to take any medication or accept treatment if you don't want it, however the government has a duty to make sure everyone has access to it if they need or want it. It's not forcing medicine down your throat, but making sure it's there should you decide to swallow it of your own decision.

  • @PCrePs They are already doing it in boston, you should do some research. Jailing people who refuse vaccines and hitting them with $1,000 a day fines. When I am told that If I don't "buy" insurance I will be hit with penaltys and jailed if I don't pay, that is when I know it are living in financial slavery. If our health is so important, why are they over 150 fda approved drugs that can and have killed Wake up!

  • Keep kiddie fiddler's out of politics

  • The problem of asking a priest this question to speak either for secular government or for secular lawyers is perfectly absurd. 'Father', who has no votes from anyone, wants to mediate God to you; it is what he does best, and what makes him most important.... HE IS ALWAYS IN POLITICS!!!!

  • I wouldn't be surprised if that "Father" is a paid actor of some kind.

  • I've seen that priest on various Fox shows. I think he is the resident priest at Fox News.  I'm not sure why the Catholic Church wants one of their representatives also acting as a talking head for the Republican propaganda machine (i.e., Fox News).

  • Precisely what qualifications does this waste-of-space godmonger bring to the table? His opinions are utterly without value or merit, given the hideous history of his evil theocracy.

  • go back to supporting a church that rapes kids. father morris. why do you know gods will, and others dont. you crazy retard

  • @thesparitan why must you talk smack

  • @stang46281 Because I can.

  • @thesparitan thats what little kids say. I was expecting a more professional answer from you, but what ever buddy. can i add you as a friend?

  • @stang46281 Whatever. You just seem like another fanatically religious person with some kind of mental illness.

  • @thesparitan i thought you might say that. Its cool man

  • @stang46281 Good work because you were right, I did say that.

  • Good grief !

    You Americans are actually insane ! :)

    Using superstition in politics is quite literally hilarious.

  • @MRSstraightA It's fox news It really doesn't reflect Americas views

  • @MRSstraightA Politics around the world bring up the insanity in everyone these days.

  • @MRSstraightA That priest is gayer than a Mexican table cloth.

  • Seriously? This is like some shit off a comedy show.

  • That priest sounds gayer than a Mexican table cloth. Nothing wrong with being gay btw,not at all. " I never get into partisan politics" 9th commandment violation methinks?

  • Run Father Morris! They hate the Catholics almost as much as us atheists!

  • that guy is a virgin. HAHAHA!!!!!

  • The fact that this priest is on Fox News has to be a sin. They must have forced him in the building with their voodoo mind games.

  • It's OK for Obama to mention god when I agree with him, but not when I don't.

    Because that's ot god's will.

    loser

  • Why are they talking to a priest? This is like watching "The Onion".

  • Neither does Father Morris reflect on God's will, Atheistmediablog.

  • this priest's a fake

  • ever heard of a priest that's not a fake?

  • The US is a democracy as far as I know, which means that the government act upon the will of the people.

  • The U.S. is not a democracy it is a republic. What do you say when you pledge allegiance to the flag? In a democracy the majority rules in a republic we are guided by unalienable rights given by God.

  • Do your country a favor, do not speak in public again before you educated yourself on political systems and the history of the U.S. The average west-European have better grasp on the U.S. than you do.

  • You're right. The United States isn't an absolute democracy. That's why it's unconstitutional for things like the pledge of allegiance to include statements like "Under God" as it runs contrary to the first amendment (framed by our founding fathers, not by "god") and is an example of democratic mob rule alienating the rights given to us by our republic.

  • You do not have to say the Pledge of allegiance. I don't recall anyone being sent to jail for refusing to say it? Ergo, it would be unconstitutional for refusing to allow people to say it if they so chose to. Also, the Republic doesn't give us these rights our Creator does. Read the Declaration of Independence if you disagree because that is what our founding fathers said.

  • The declaration of independence isn't a document of the law. The constitution is and it makes no mention of a creator.

  • yea because the founding fathers were realy devout cathlics

  • Like the right to believe in bullshit?

  • wow republic literally meant representative government, open a book

  • Center for Immigration Studies clain $338.3 Billion a year in costs for illegal aliens

  • genuine cunts

  • Obama indoctinating religious leaders with scripture? I didn't know obama was a reverand? he's sating he's a doctor and knows what is best on tv But a reverand?

  • why support a bill written by pro abortionists? For that matter eugenicists

  • Yeah, and not sharing = death.

    What theories are there for the death of Ananias and Sapphira then?

    1. They died because of their shame

    2. They were killed by God

    3. They were killed by church authority (Peter)

    4. It's a made up story

  • Religion and politics should be kept separated, they are of two completely different worlds.

  • Millions of people all over the world were TOLD that Obama would be the President, long before he became President. That's where all this Messiah/God talk originated from. But I must admit, even though I know that God is fact know, I am confused over Obama's agenda. Will he give America Universal Healthcare? Why is he still using drones on Pakistan which has killed innocent people? I must wait for his mission to become clear! Hitler/Anti-Christ is dead 2012 we await the coming of Jesus!

  • Father Jonathan Morris would be smacked and insulted by any philosoph like Jesus... this guy is the image of right wing religious nutcase

  • There are no gods, there are no demons, just the big wide beautiful universe around us.

  • This guy is so full of shit.....wow....completely dodged the Bible verse....

  • Yeah, he's full of it! Gay voice too, I get a strong closet homo vibe from this guy.

  • Atheist media blog? fuck! I didn't know there was such a thing. I think I'll go down to the atheist liquor store to buy some atheist Old English and atheist Champelle.

  • Keep your own house in order and God will order the house!

  • Why can't he just keep my house in order? I've got some dishes that need washing, and some laundry that needs doing.......he better get his ass over here soon or he's fired....

  • Un - fucking - Believable. "On Gods side"

    Someone needs to remind this idiot and everyone else about the church and state thing.

  • So, Obama quoting the bible doesn't necessarily make him right but Morris can quote the bible and we must assume it makes him correct!?!

  • I'd bet a dollar to a doughnut that Father Fuckerfaster is as gay as a mexican table cloth.

  • LOL! Good one,never haerd that expresion before,choked on me phatty! koff ha ha ha koff!

  • after the last 8 years of bush's bullshit "faith", all of a sudden these assholes at fox want to challenge the concept of co-opting religion for political purposes? are these cocksuckers fuckin' serious??? unbelievable hypocrasy! jesus said "my kingdom is no part of this world..." but it looks like father asswipe sold his soul to fox for some face time. could there be a reality show already in the works for the padre? what a whore

  • This guy is not a real priest. He is just a paid FOX clown.

  • "Celibacy is the strangest of perversions."

    I forget who said it, but it speaks volumes about our little priest friend.

  • God's will can take my balls on its chin.

  • this is medicine not magic if you have a job to do DO IT I dont want any doctor to pick and choose what you are going to do based on your mythology if you don't want to perform a procedure do go in to that area of medicine

  • Is the video rating meant to reflect whether you agree with what is shown in the video? Or whether you agree with the video title? *scratches head*

  • Who took my Priest-Off?

  • you can be sure father jonathon is making some serious green spewing his nonsense

  • Wasn't Jesus a massive socialist?

  • what a dumbass

  • This idiot doesn't know the bible, and he's a priest!

  • This guy actually has some good points. This video isn't quite what I expected from the title. He also never really explained why it is exactly that it is against God's will. I think he said what he did based upon real efficacy and not scripture. That's the way it should be I suppose.

  • fuck god and fuck off, Morris. A whore for god...

  • It took Fox Business about a year or so to become "Fox News 2". This absurd religious discussion has no place on a channel dedicated to business.

  • Didn't you guys catch the hidden Eleventh Commandment? "Thou shalt die if thou dost not possess the money to pay for thine healthcare"?

  • Everyone, drop all you're doing, this guy knows THE MIND OF GOD!

    This priest is good a mouthing the FOX News talking points. What a tool.

  • what a genuine cunt

  • Just what I needed..another idiot on faux"news" telling me what God thinks.The sin of ego weighs heavy on mankind.

  • This is quite comedic, relying on a habitual liar to talk on another ridiculous matter. The fact that this language is being used by Obama is extremely disappointing just shows you an elephant is an elephant even if painted black.

  • These people scare me to death.

  • Somebody give this guy a nun to fuck

  • lmao +1

  • What I meant to say was: Somebody give this guy a nun to fuck so he will stop being a pedophile to young minds wrecking their brains!

  • OMG . the questions are dumb

    Obama is not talking in biblical language he is referencing a work of fiction like we all do.

    if obama had said 'you can't handle the truth', we wouldn't say he is speakin in a few good men language

  • look at his response to the Bible passage on lawyers:

    "Whoa"

    Not even the "religious theologeans" know whats in the Bible, and when they're caught off guard and their ignorance in their own "discipline" exposed, what do they do? Twist it.

    "Oh, Jesus was just talking about corrupt lawyers, not lawyers in general".

    Why do we grant airtime to someone whose only knowledgable distinction between some hobo off the street is that he wears a white collar.

  • lmfao, what bs, another lttle religious puppet on the fukin telly wowv lool

  • Bill O'Reilly's office phone number: 212-301-3320

    Shepard Smith's office phone number: 212-301-3711

    FoxNew's general phone number: 888-369-4762

  • I liked the video NewScientist had on health care reform in the US and statistics compared to other countries, etc.

  • throw away the bible and take a business class

  • His god must want people to die of their illnesses and not receive medical attention. You know what a Capitalist that the Biblical god really is. His god didn't give these people diseases so that science could cure them but so they could die. Evil Gods do Evil things.

  • jesus fuck... fox news... gotta love them

  • It must be FKED UP to actually BE Father Morris...  What do you suppose goes through this man's mind?!?

  • THIS is why I don't watch Faux News.

  • You just did.

  • In order to have a will something must exist in the first place.

  • wow.. this guy hasnt been fired yet?

  • Healthcare and Religion is Irrelevant:

    Ex-Pres. Cory Aquino died of colon cancer even if millions of people prayed that she get better, she still dies...

    To a theist's viewpoint:

    Get Cured = God's Will

    Die = God's Will

  • bads06, millions of people prayed for Cory Aquino, which may be why she died. She may have been sent to Heaven, because that is much better than living on Earth.

    So think a little, fuck.

  • i see... now i see you as a sadistic bastard... People see her as a icon of freedom, and this is your best answer... **Clap** **Clap** **Clap**... you disgust me...

    BTW, she suffered..

  • Why in the **** are we listening to a pastor on a BUSINESS channel whose church doesn't get taxed?

    Ay yi yi... yeah, making health care more affordable for the poor definitely isn't something Jesus would want. >_>

  • Oh, thanks for telling me God's will, Father Morris. Tell you what, from now on, why don't we just go YOU for any big questions that face this country? Who needs the people when we've got someone who knows what GOD wants? This is great! Please, run my life for me. Who better than someone who talks to God?

  • grapevinewrath = Best. Response. Ever.

  • How the hell does this idiot get attention?

    Oh, Faux News. That explains it.

    I really hate this dumb piece of shit "Morris".

  • The aim of the bill is to take care of those who cannot afford to take care of themselves. Yeah, I'm sure Jesus would disagree with helping the helpless.

  • Tax the Churches!!!!!!

  • Hence today I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator: by defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord. Adolf Hitler (Mein Kampf)

  • Religion and healthvare do not mix:

    Dale Neumann, 47, was convicted in the March 23, 2008, death of his daughter, Madeline, from undiagnosed diabetes. Prosecutors contended he should have rushed the girl to a hospital because she couldn't walk, talk, eat or drink. Instead, Madeline died on the floor of the family's rural Weston home as people surrounded her and prayed. Someone called 911 when she stopped breathing

  • dont christians know that other than being secular, communisum is right in line with christianity.

  • I am not surprise to hear this kind of thing from Fox.

    The anti-social agenda reinforced by the religion... The old story..

  • Father Morris is a publicity whore. And has little knowledge of much at all.

    I've seen him called in to represent conservative religious opinion on a variety of subjects. He has an ability to sounds authoritative whilst getting his facts completely wrong.

    He was on a show last year claiming Hitler was a confirmed atheist. What a twat.

  • Hitler a confirmed atheist!! Hah, what a stupid propaganda...

    I agree with you DefaultPosition.

  • Really? I'd say technology did. And it's not free. Nothing is free. My "free" health care had me sit in the ER for 8 1/2 hours in pain with little help on tuesday. Despite my little income, I'd gladly pay for the services I need and investing in privatized insurance in case I get serious injuries and diseases.

    No one has the right to forcefully extract property from one individual to give to another, whether he deserves it or not.

  • When will Fox legally be held responsible for its reckless misinformation? It is one thing to have freedom of speech, and another to blatantly lie, misinform, and in Glenn Beck's case directly contradict themselves just for ratings.

    When you start doing harm to this country and it's people, that is when we need to draw the line, and Fox has more than crossed that line. At what point in time do we put a stop to it? When we are brought to another civil war? When we have Fox linked terrorists?

  • for shame, freedom of speech means that other people get to say things that you don't like.

  • Not when it causes people to die. There is a limit to everything, even freedom of speech.

  • Uh... I think putting limits on speech means it's... y'know... NOT free, and the Constitution forbids the government from interfering with free speech (the constitution doesn't GIVE that right, but assumes humans are born with that right), so tough luck you fascist prick.

  • Um, we already don't have absolute freedom of speech genius. Because just like everything, there is a limit where there is too much.

    It is illegal to scream fire in a movie theater.

  • Oliver Holmes was a moron. Do you even remember the case in question? The one where he made the analogy? It isn't against the law.

  • Well, go drink 3 gallons of water and let me know how that works out for you. There is a limit to everything, even freedoms.

  • Nice, you didn't address anything of substance in my comment. You are an ignoramus.

    Have fun with that "folksy" wisdom you got there buddy^^lol

  • Only when people dont address the topic well enough.

  • Fortunately it's not up to you to make that call.

    Go troll somewhere else if you want to spew senseless ad hocs out yer mouth, junior.

  • Go learn how logic plays into reality.

  • No you're the one with the thing....internet conversation complete.

    Thanks for the lulz.

    You can go to 4chan to see your faggotry at work. We'll be in touch soon.^^

  • Oh no, some pussy is going to post something on 4chan that will make him look like the idiot.

  • The constitution also give you the right to bear arms. I still wouldn't give a mentally unstable person a gun or bear arms.

  • *sigh*

    Are you 12?

  • speech has never killed anyone

  • Yes it has.

    For a recent example, see George Tiller. For an older example see Nazi Germany, for the oldest example see Religion.

  • aaannnggg!

    there is an important distinction to be made, the nazi's racist speech didn't kill anybody, it was their actions. what's the difference? one can be reasoned with and discussed, the other just smahes your head open. the first (speech) should always be allowed except in certain instances such as in print or in court, the other, violence should never be allowed except for in self defense

  • And what do you think motivated the troops to kill over 6 million people? Mere military orders? Or propaganda, like the copies of Mein Kampf that was issued to every soldier?

    What were the rallies which urged troops on to purge the scourge that was the Jew, the Gay, the Roma, the Black, and support the one superior race?

  • Idiotic words by a middle aged virgin.

    My free health insurance saved me life from an allergic reaction last month.

  • "if we vacuum politics of religious motivation we are in big trouble" yeahhhhh

  • I'm subbed to this channel and the Onion. At first, I swear I thought what Father Morris was saying was coming from the Onion.

  • That priest is such a lightweighter...

  • somebody needs to go Jihad on this asshole

  • This priest should stick to what he knows about, little boys.

  • I wouldn't be able to look at myself in the mirror after such exhibition of word bending. This guy is a travesty.

  • Where did he get "killing people down the street" from? What a despicable throwing of red herrings. Poor animals.

    Does bs-ing come naturally to this man, or did hit happen sometime during his infection with religion?

  • that priest is just the way that I like my men, blond, stupid and cute

  • Hmm... In what way is he stupid?

  • he still believes in the little bookof jewish fairytales, he hates socialism eventho he says he believes in jesus who was a a socialist. he has taken an oath to protect a catholic church, even if that means lying

  • I totally agree and think this answer is way better than your first!

  • why thank you kind person

  • in every way. he believes in god and goes even further to help manipulate others minds into believing in bullshit.

    he's stupid. deal with it.

  • I get a thumbs down for asking a question? What ASSWIPE is thoughtless enough to do that? Fact is my question was answered perfectly fine!

  • yea he is cute, wonder wud he be interested in a meet, wud look good with an other type of collar on him

  • lol, you sick fuck.

  • yea and that too,

  • It is a little known fact that Jesus only healed people with private health insurance... ;)
