  • This is the infammous spongebob is gay video? WTF!

  • @TheSkitMan I know right

  • I don't like Between the Lions, because the joke that they had about a fly in their soup, really happened to me

  • lol seeing bear, tutter, treelo and the other Bear In The Big Blue House muppets on sesame street was cool....I just wish Barney wasn't here :/ he's just wasting space it would be cool to see kermit, piggy, Floyd, Dr.Teeth and the penguins on sesame street instead of Barney.

  • I am so disappointed in this. This is an educational resource? All it seems to be accomplishing is promoting children to watch a greater variety of PBS shows. How can children connect this to real-life tolerance and respect of family diversity?

  • @jro418 There are more than 100 characters from many shows on Disney Channel, Nickelodeon and PBS together in one effort to promote a unique message of unity. The educational DVD package that is offered for free to educational institutions includes a diversity curriculum that has been used nationwide - and in fact internationally.

  • @nhunt1778 Ok, I just hope the diversity curriculum package offers some real-life examples. I don't think seeing Barney with Big Bird will necessarily translate in children's minds to accepting people who are culturally different from them.

  • @jro418 - The We Are Family, A Musical Message for all Teacher's Guide is included with the DVD. You can view it online though our website here: wearefamilyfoundation. org/files/WAFFMusicVideoTeache­rsGuide_0. pdf

    The Teacher's Guide aims to foster discussion about the diversity on this planet and how we are all family... Biological family, classroom family or your global family!

  • Arthur is an Aardvark?

  • OK....I seriously want Big Bird to smack Barney right there. Does that make me a bad person?

  • Is this supposed to be about how different species can all be friends or something?

  • Can somebody tell me the full list of these shows?

  • I've watched over half of these cartoons. And I fucking loved them all.

    I still don't see a goddamn gay thing about this video. It's about love, tolerance; acceptance of others no matter what they are race, gender species; and family.

  • Dr. Teeth speaks again!!!!

  • Stupid right wingers...

  • LOL @ 2:23 awesome, thats family like it or hate it.

  • I love Barney!

  • We are family...PBS, Disney, Nickelodeon and me. ^_~

    (There was more a mix of different channels and shows than of almost anything else! ^_~)

    (Among the many families and friends represented: The Proud Family, The Fairly Oddparents, Bear in the Big Blue House, DragonTales, Little Bill, Clifford the Big Red Dog, The Backyardigans, Arthur, Barney, Winnie the Pooh, Lilo and Stitch, Rugrats. ^_^)

    Cute. Nicely done. ^_^

  • AWESOME OVERLOAD OF AWESOME FRICKING NESS *SCREAM* *FAINT*

    goodnight

  • Nostalgic explosion.... :D

  • as a gayman i must say our master plan to turn children gay with propaganda is failing :[

  • Did I miss something? I see nothing gay.

  • Hey, nice one.

  • Big Bird and Barney together in the same shot = Total MidnF*ck

  • I agree with this vid

  • OMG I'VE BEEN TRYING TO FIND THIS SINCE LIKE FOREVER. I first saw it in elementary school and haven't seen it since then. OMG I MISSED THIS SO MUCH (IDC if I sound immature).

  • BULLSH*T this is a big SH*T

  • They need to make an updated version of this with more Disney characters............

    But you know what they need to do first? GET BEAR IN THE BIG BLUE HOUSE, PB&J OTTER, AND ROLIE POLIE OLIE BACK ON TV!

  • Whats the show with the man in a big bear suit called?

    Have vague memories of watching that.

  • @MrDelusionalPenguin Bear in the Big Blue House. :)

  • is this the FAMOUS AND POLEMICAL homosexual video of spongebob? i didn't see anything gay here!

  • Best video ever!!!

  • This reminds me of we are the world. P.S. I hate cartoons singing popular songs

  • Barney and Big Bird together in the same shot. Even if one was superimposed next to the other one, my head just exploded.

  • i hate these tolerance videos. i mean, everyones equal, BUT DO I HAVE TO GO HUG MY FREAKIN NEIGHBOR? MORE IMPORTANTLY DO MY KIDS HAVE TOO? its become really annoying. IM BECOMING INTOLERANT OF TOLERANCE VIDEOS

  • When I saw Barney and Big Bird in the same place...

    ...I shat king-sized bricks

  • i remember this...

  • we'll i hate to tell you this, but there doing for the 9/11 Attacks.

  • Let me get this straight. They thought:

    - A clip of Spongebob turning into the letter O

    - A clip of Spongebob dancing along with a jellyfish

    - A clip of Spongebob waving his fingers with a sea snail (Gary) on his head

    ... while the song "We are Family" plays promotes homosexuality?

    This video is innocent.

  • @DKCplayer Don't you see? In that last one, hes wearing a bathrobe. And what do gay people wear when they've just gotten out of the bath? Thats right: a snail on their head! Dancing with a jellyfish? Yeah, a DUDE jellyfish! Everyone knows dancing=sex. And who loves this song? 20-something women who are such good friends, you don't even KNOW. And who sometimes befriends women? Gay people. Thus, this video hates Jesus and wants to make kids gay. Plus, 'bear' can be a hairy gay man. Or a real bear.

  • So....this is the controversial video? There's nothing gay here! And even if there was, so what?? Kids should learn to respect EVERYONE no matter race, religion, sexual orientation, gender or age.

  • It's like my entire childhood was put into a three-minute music video (with the exception of Pokemon and a few other shows) to promote tolerance and acceptance.

    I can't decide if this is awesomely adorable, or adorably awesome.

  • @bijoukaiba I know, right? I LOVE this video too!!!!! I feel the same way too; like I grew up with Bear in the Big Blue House, Barney, Sesame Street, The Muppets, and more!!!!! haha!! God Bless You!!!

  • Well im atheist so this doesnt offend me at all ahahaha

  • @xXS4V4GEXx so your also a neckbeard as well???

  • OMG IT HAS OSCAR THE GROUCH LIVING IN A TRASH CAN!! THIS PROMOTES HOMELESSNESS AND THE REJECTION OF EDUCATIONAL VALUES!!!

    America's conservative christians are a ball of meat heads...

  • ohhhhh my god, im christian and this is soooooooooo offensive!!!111! wtf? im christian and how is this bad

  • @FlCl3000 what are you saying your saying 2 things at once

  • @135Andi im just saying its crazy that so many people were offended by this. its silly really

  • Excuse me but I don't understand what's the problem with this video? And what's this about Christians hating this video? I'm a Christian and I don't hate it. So what's wrong?

  • These type of Christians are being fucking stupid, nothing gay or wrong with this video.

  • this is funny

  • So people bashed this because of Spongebob being in it...

    I hate humanity more and more every passing day.

  • I hate tolearance shoved down my throat

  • all friends

  • I love the laid back lion.

  • Wow! All my favorite Jim Henso ncharacters together (Except Fraggle Rock :() But Still, Barney with Big Bird? No way!

  • I have no tolerance for the intolerant (JAMES DOBSON AND PAT ROBERTSON AND ALL OF THE OTHER IDIOTIC RELIGIOUS DOUCHEBAGS THAT FIND A PROBLEM WITH EVERYTHING )

  • supposed it have a homosexual mensaje but, i don see anything ¿what the fuck? is only cartoons singing we are family not we are a big baga of gays ¬¬

  • cool!

  • I remember this! It has all my preschooler favorites!

    Also, I would SO see Barney, Big Bird, and Bear hanging out behind the scenes.

  • If people say this promotes gayness, then I really lost understanding in our society.

  • i watched this in class the other day and everybody is screaming out the characters! :D :D :D

  • Yay! I missed this thing! :D So many memories.. I never knew it was on here. "Let's get funky!" xD I can't believe there was an argument about this vid. Barney and SpongeBob were never gay to begin with! I HATE it when people of my faith jump to conclusions. It makes the rest of us sensible ones look bad... >8C

  • @WildHamster321 i no a bunch of ppl is hating everything now 2 make them look cool XO

  • They should do a remake of this and include other kids' shows on there, like "Ni Hao, Kai-Lan", "Handy Manny", etc...- then there'd be real harmony!

  • I personally think this video is about acceptance and tollerance which seems to get lost in peoples minds!

  • as an adult, this bemuses me. If i were a kid, this would be the most awesome thing EVER!

  • Barney Tore It Up .

  • @ eahazell, I am truly sorry that has been your experience with Christians and Christianity as a whole. All I can say is when hate and intolerance are preached the consequence is driving people further and further from the faith. I know this link is not about Christianity, it's just sad to me that people think we are a bunch of hate mongers.

  • As a Christian I find all this controversy to be PURE NON-SENSE! Why do people have to read so much into things and make mountains out of molehills?

  • @cwplax25 well cwplax25, unfortunately this is the vocal minority of your group that brings down so much acrimony against trh right, religion and christiamity in particular. Perhaps (and I am saying this with no anger or sarcasm) the less extreme of you need to be more vocal and out speak the wing that gives you such a black eye. Sadly I rarely run into tolerant christians, so my opinion is not teh most unbiased. I am glad there are those who have some common sense

  • Every single show from every single kids network joining forces.

    Appocolypes anyone?

  • @Turbo200X No just a crazy acid trip

  • how is this controversial, they just showed clips from spongebob. Ones that were already part of episodes. I hate society

  • I wish I had 56 brothers, 89 sisters, 14 grandmothers, 12 grandfathers, 7 uncles, 261 friends, and a cousin 5 times removed.

  • ..............................­....................

    THIS is the video people got all upset about? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? I see nothing gay here. Sure, I guess you could get the message of "you should accept everyone for what they are" out of it, but that in no way makes this video "promoting gayness."

  • @zazzypaws I think that's what they thought was "accepting gay people," whcih in that case, it would be true (as it's about tolerance to EVERYONE, not just select people). I remember reports on this from 2005 and I assume they (Focus on the Family) weren't keen on a foundation supporting ALL people, not homophobes like themselves.

  • @zazzypaws Of course it is offensive! Christians have every reason to be upset with this. I mean, come on! it teaches children to accept people and love them. That is the kind of non-sense Jesus wouldn't stand for, much less teach to people!!!

    ...oh wait...

  • @zazzypaws iknow

  • sage

  • Gay Joke.

    Gay Joke.

    Gay Joke.

    Gay Joke.

    Gay Joke.

    ...

    Penis.

  • how on earth could spongebob be gay?? he's a freaking sponge for goodness sake!!! he is ASEXUAL if anything, and he's been seen sans pants on the show countless times and guess what, there is no penis to have buttsex! really, if people are wondering if the fictional characters of a kid's comic might be homosexual then something must be really really wrong with society

  • Why are there post referring to GAYNESS? Then YOU are not FAMILY!

  • I saw, like, three tiny clips of Spongebob. What the hell, Focus on the Family.

  • @bananas1and2 I know, right?

  • An interesting crossover, to say the leasy. It's almost like watching an official AMV.

  • Man, Barney is Bitchin' in this vid! XD

  • they showed spongebob maybe 4 times?? LMFAO. some people love to bitch about everything

  • wtf Spongebob was in it for like 30 sec. So in 30 seconds those people assume Spongebob's gay by 30 seconds of dancing and holding hands. Wow those guys are pretty stupid

  • Spongebob is the best cartoon ever and it isnt just for kids.

    SPONGEBOB is not GAY!

  • @2Dudelsack2 Agreed! :)

  • Comment removed

  • @2Dudelsack2 He is gay you faggot

  • they cut spogebob into the video and he is gay people whos say thius are fucking sons of bitches

  • WOW!!!! I'm late responding to this but, DON'T CALL SPONGEBOB GAY!!!! That's one of the coolest cartoon characters ever!!! and I'm over 45 so I should know! lol

  • @Shellnpepe go get a job. and go fuck with him if yo ulike him

  • I think the "controversy" regarding Spongebob is stupid. Does it matter if he was gay or not, he is a cartoon character. He doesn't tell the viewers to be gay or to fall for the same sexuality. He promotes a flamboyant and sensitive man, which is something children should except. It is okay to be sensitive and flamboyant even if you are straight. I've never took the series seriously, until people start to criticize a series whose purpose is to make children smile and learn lessons.

  • @RebaWillGraceFan I meant to say accept...sorry. :)

  • All of you are wrong they show me this in 1st grade and it about everyone of us are the same and we care about each other hint the name "We are family"

  • wats gay about spongebob? fuckin retards... spongebob RULES :)

  • GAY

  • Boogie on down ! ........I wanna be a Muppet....or at least " Ivor the Engine ! "

  • But sorry, I don't agree with the queer lifestyle and they shouldn't be allowed to marry

  • Bossfazor I'm agreeing that I don't see anything gay about spongebob in the video but don't say fuck the church. I'm pretty fuck in offended that were insulting the kkk and the church in the same sentence how dare you compare them like that you little prick FUCK YOU

  • ummm i only saw spongebob twice in this whole video... there is nothing in this video thats gay at all! the only thing tht was even close to being gay was pooh bear with no pants on.. and thts not even gay! come on now people really??

  • spongebob NOT GAY spongebob is cool and religion are crazy FUCK YOU church FUCK YOU kkk FUCK YOU stupid people SPONGEBOB IS ONLY A TOON FOR KIDS AND TEENS

  • haha, i love to watch these shows :'D

  • dr facilier woud have made this so more awesome, he makes everything he touches cool

  • I remember when I was little, on the radio they had this song and something about gay people. 6 or so years later, I STILL don't understand

  • trust religion to take a song thats about being united and harmonious and say things like "omg cant tolerate homosexuality." i cant even see much gay reference at all, i wish there was though its about time we actually get rid if this stupid world wide homophobia. -.- silly people.

  • Wow, its kind of concerning what some people will decide to get worked up about. I searched for this video because I've read several places about how some Christians are fighting the video's exposure to children because it promotes tolerance of homosexual families. I honestly see nothing hear but a bunch of cartoons and muppets singing a terribly annoying song about families... Also, most of the griping I saw was about the involvement of Spongebob. I saw the character about twice. Ridiculous.

  • really how is this gay its just them singing wtf

  • i dont get it can somone please explain how this is gay or whatever its just kid charaters singing hoe is it gay

  • awesome!

  • ohhh yes im acually the girl in the purple at 3:03 ...ahahahaha that was a while ago

  • The only criticism I really have with this video is that it's too fast paced. The images flash by so fast. It is hard to focus on the images and it makes my head hurt.

  • barney and the count are fucking pimps.

  • Wow, this is weird.

  • My son declares himself homosexual after watching this video, thanks shit head foundation

  • @ONIXG224 what exactly is wrong with that? u should be more tolerant of his lifestyle choice

  • All right, why wasn't ED BIGHEAD from ROCKO'S MODERN LIFE or REN HOEK from REN & STIMPY invited? Having ED BIGHEAD in this video would've made this video a lot better!

  • subliminal message

  • So cute, I think I remember them showing this on one of those channels I used to watch. Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, Floyd Pepper sings a line. :-)

  • and another thing, why do people assume spongebob is gay? because he is feminine a little? How do you know hes not a transexual?! lmao

  • LOL I remember ALL these shows.

  • this is  hilarious and awesome!!

  • I miss the old shows like out of the box... and zoom! :(

  • MAGIC SCHOOL BUS HELL YES.

  • where are the asians? they are my favorite kind of people.

  • Wow, the best cartoons of my time singing and dancing about equality and tolerance. Spongebob appearing three times in normal scenes...wow I totally see the gay promotion in this.

    How in the world is THIS promoting homosexuality? You mean to tell me that songs like "I just wanna **** every girl in the world" and "Birthday S**" can slip by onto radio stations but this tolerance and peace song gets the heat simply because Spongebob is in it(who looked normal in the vid)? People can be such idiots

  • I KNOW. i totally agree. i could not stop laughing after seeing this video because i heard it somehow "promoted" homosexuality. lol how does this promote anything sexual? and you're so right, songs like "my humps, my lady lumps" and "smack that all on the floor smack that give me some more" can be used in middle school talent shows or on the radio, but this video is condemned because it promotes homosexuality? LAUGH MY FUCKING ASS OFF

  • I know I was like homosexuality? That makes no fucking sense! This video has nothing to do with it! Unless theres a subliminaal messege or sumthing lol?

  • @DodecahedronHead

    I know. The We are family foundation, who created this video, does accept gays, and one of the ladies in this video was gay, but i dont see anything in this video promoting homosexuality or anything to do with it.

  • its like, disney channel has miley cyrus and vanessa hundgins, who both has nude pics of themselves on the internet, she would stone disney channel for allowing adultery? lol nope u never hear christians attacking them

  • disturbing

  • why did spogebob get burned so bad for this he was only in 1 scene for like 1secound and i dont even see how this is gay ive seen way more homo looking kid cartoons that were straight wow i hate it when they try to say shit like this is gay

  • that. . . . was. . .. disturbing. . .

  • yo i remember this!! awesome!

  • I remember seeing this video on tv a long time ago. I haven't seen this is years!

  • all that they were doing is telling little kids to treat everyone the same

  • 1:07 ZOMG OUT OF THE BOX!

  • @hogbackmtn: I miss that show so much. First I think I'm too grown up to watch these shows, then I come back years later to find out that they've canceled all the great shows. It seems only Sesame Street is the only show that can withstand the test of time after these 40 years.

  • Aww, I know spongebob seems gay but i know for sure he isnt and this video didnt seem to promote anything of the sort.. wtf is wrong with people poor spongebob :(

  • that was ciutr \ and funny

  • what did that woman say to barney at 3:00 come on barney something i couldn`t understand the rest she said

  • After seeing a captioned version a while back, I found out it's "Come on Barney, you big purple thing!" I couldn't figure that out either, so I understand why you're asking.

  • thanx

  • You're welcome

  • This is what got people to think Spongebob was gay? Come on how about Arthur, he was shown a lot of times in this video and no one ever said that he was gay. I dind't even get what the video was trying to promote except unity. When I heard of this video I thought it would be a lot more contreversial! People can be very retarded, they made it sound like it was all Spongebob. Words can not describe how retarded people were when they thought Spongebob was promoting gayness in this video.

  • Me too!! I came looking when iI heard the fuss, and spongebob was barely in it! I got no gay promotion or mention outta this video!

  • Exactly!

    And anyways, what's "bad" about tolerating homosexuality? Freakin' bible-thumpers ruin everything.

  • You guys nailed it on the head. If anything, this video is about RESPECTING homosexuals/bisexuals/etc. (not to mention everyone else). Though it wasn't just Spongebob who got blamed, though he took most of it. Barney got blamed partially too, in some articles. And as I'm sure you know, neither are gay, despite these claims.

  • How in the hell does that show spongebob promoting homosexuality? For one it shows him only like three times. 2'nd they are clips from episodes which aren't homosexual. and 3rd the song is we are family (which promotes equal rights for all) not just homosexuality. So in no way does this promote homosexuality for spongebob in any way. It was just some idiot making up crap for some idiotic reason.

  • Nice vid by the way. You know I think it's really stupid that people thought this video promoted homosexuality. I don't know if it did or not, but I don't think it does.

    And they called spongebob, barney, dora, pooh and big bird gay just because of this stupid video. Well they showed Penny and Timmy Turner. Does that make them gay? No.

  • what was elmo saying at 1:01?

  • were giveing love in a family dose

  • The video was about ACCEPTANCE. Acceptance of gays, blacks, Jews, and other differences.

  • It doesn't promote homosexuality. It promotes homosexual TOLERANCE. It preaches the true fact that gays, minority groups, and all religions have the right to be treated with respect.

  • EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING! I can't believe that the idea of tolerance could actually spark controversy in this day in age. It's ridiculous. I find it funny (or extremely sad) how a song that talks about violence or doing drugs or having sex with girls can end up being just about as controversial as a song about tolerance.

  • this made Bible bangers shit themselves because they seen Spongebob as an advocate for Homosexuality

  • laugh my fuckiing ass off, christian groups dont react nearly as bad to Drugs and teen sex as they do to tolerating gay people.

  • In response to Petirep, the organization responsible for this film is the We Are Family Foundation, whose mission is to "promote the message of a global family by creating and supporting programs that inspire and educate the next generation about respect, understanding and appreciation of cultural diversity."

    We Are Family Foundation and We Are Family are two different organizations.

  • how did this cuz controversy for if spongebob is gay.i dont see it.and i disaggree with mysteryracecardude beacuz he never appears after every spongebob scenes

  • Indeed, We Are Family!

  • EPIC WIN!!!!

    (To the christans, I'm gay now ಠ_ಠ)

  • I'd heard of this a few times and how Spongebob was 'gay' which really isn't the case. It's just because the homosexual community likes him. It's so stupid! Things like this piss me off, how some people get all uptight and try to shove their beliefs in your face!

    I mean seriously! So what if they hold hands, I hold my best friend's hand at times and it's not that big of a deal.

    There's so much more I want to say but I'm coming to the end of this character count thing. So meh...great video!

  • That was so cool!

  • yoshi tails sluggo

    scratch scratee

  • This was the inspiration for the Barney Bunch! But the video itself is worse than getting rick rolled.

  • i read in spongebobs wikipedia article that this video claimed that spongebob was promoting homosexuality

    in no way do i see that

    prove me if im wrong,

    but i believe this video is just stating that everyone is family

  • Each member in a joint family satisfies his or her longings and needs for comforts according to the financial capacity of the family. If a certain member of the family accumulates more food, clothes than what he or she needs, will not the other members of the family face difficulty? In such circumstances, his or her actions will be rectified to righteousness and society. It is the responsibility of society to demolish such a defective social system immediately.

  • What does this have to do with anything?

  • if we are a family then we should move together. Are we singing just empty words?

    If no, then we can't longer neglect actions against anti-social tendencies in our human society
