John F. Kennedy On The Seperation Of Church And State

John F. Kennedy On The Seperation Of Church And State
[youtube]zP2C0dCUD3A[/youtube]

John F. Kennedy speaking before the Greater Houston Ministerial Association at the Rice Hotel in Houston, Texas on September 12, 1960.

At this time Senator Kennedy was running for the Presidency and getting a lot of heat from people, because he was Catholic and the U.S. had never had a Catholic President before.

JFK stresses the importance of separation of church and state and condemns nations without religious liberty and tolerance. This speech angered the Pope and the Vatican.
