Although, you will still have to set your scripts and whatnot to 775 or 777 depending on your system (if not chown'd). well it’s not like setting them to 777 is all that bad, unless the scripts in question could be used for malicious purposes. you could always try chown(ing) the directories and files in question to the www-data user (the apache daemon).
chown www-data:www-data -R /absolute/path/to/content

I'm running everything out of /var/www at this point and I was wondering if changing it to be in my home directory (/home/ryan/) would fix the permission problem I'm having. PHP files run fine in /var/www but pl, rb and py files throw a 500 error when run unless I change their permissions (I used chmod -R 777 ./ because I have no idea what I'm doing.) Thanks.
