Rick Perry: The atheist choice?

Texas Gov. Rick Perry is slated to feature a video at his Saturday presidential announcement that includes religious statements and scenes of a family at prayer.

That wouldn’t be unusual for Perry — the devout Christian who last week led a massive, day-long prayer rally in Houston — but for the video’s producer: an avowed atheist…

Although Wilson does not believe in God, he says he’s “not an evangelical atheist” and doesn’t hold Perry’s faith against him because “the Constitution allows us freedom of religion, and that extends to public officials.”

RedState.com co-founder Joshua Trevino initially suggested he make the film, Wilson said, “and from there, it just came from the heart.”
