Hi, I'm Reginald.
I'm a 32 year old Atlanta native. I'm recently separated and looking for new and interesting people to hang out with and do fun activities with. I'm a freethinker and proud of it. Read below to find out more. I have been in internet talk radio for 8 years and have created a living for myself and family through it. I'm considered a pioneer in this field. I wish to share this awesome show with BP, I hope you enjoy. In celebration of
Black History Month, Mike Estes appears to discuss with us, Black
Freethought from the 1900's to 1950's. We will look at many of the
very influential black freethinkers, unknown to most, that were
involved in the civil rights movement and black
intellectualism.A memorable quote from the show: "That is our tradition! A tradition of educating ourselves and beating the odds and mastering the rules that white society have put on us, and once you master those rules then you can change the rules." - Mike Estes - Speaking out in response to those that don't find value in speaking the "white man's" English well. ~ Consider keeping us on the air by making a
monthly
pledge ~

SOME THINGS TO MAKE YOU GO HMMM ..: Keep in mind that I am not challenging God, for who could do such a thing. I am challenging and responding to what people SAY about God. There is a difference. Let's think clearly. ------------------------------------------------- * Have you ever wondered why God has emotions? According to the Bible he does. Most human emotion is pretty much a result of unplanned experience and we are reacting/interacting to/with our environment. Does God react? Can anything be an unplanned experience for God? The idea of an emotional God especially in Christian theology is absurd. Regret, hate, sadness, jealousy etc are all human emotions, yet God has these emotions according to the Bible. A perfect God would be beyond such limitations as negative emotions. If God has a plan, then nothing can shock God. Think about it. What is he getting all emotional about? * The fossil record and genetic evidence shows us that modern humans originated from Africa. Yet, the Adam and Eve story claims the first Humans lived in a garden in Eden, near 4 rivers. (Most of which no one can find). One of these rivers mentioned is the Euphrates, which runs through Iraq, Syria and a portion of Turkey. What`s the truth? Did man come out of Africa or near the Euphrates River? * When the believer gets to Heaven, how can Heaven be utter bliss when people they love and care about are burning in Hell? The typical response I keep getting here is that God will erase your memories of your loved ones so you can be happy. But who have you become then if God starts wiping out your memories? Memories help form personalities. The person that is in Heaven, cannot be you. * In II Kings 2-23/24 we read about God sending 2 she-bears to attack children for calling the prophet Elisa bald. The bears killed 42 of the many children. Is this an example of a perfectly moral being to you? To defend this story just shows how screwed Christian morality really is. * Why did God flood the earth to remove evil? It didn`t work! Evil came right back, God should have known that would happen! So why did He bother? The same argument I used against the Hurrican Katrina disaster can be applied here. God couldn`t snap his holy fingers and just make the sinners disappear? No.. he had to drown innocent animals, babies, children.. etc.. Sounds like a myth to me. *Why did God create the trees of Life and Knowledge and place them in theGarden?You can`t say to "testman". Nothing to test. God knew that placing those trees there would cause the downfall of man. Also Satan, why did heallow Satan in the Garden? God would have known as well, that his presence, would lead to the downfall of man. The only options we have to explain this are that: God wanted sin to enter the world, God is NOT all-knowing or God doesn`t exist. What image of God was man made from? Couldn`t have been a moral one or physical one. Does God have hands and feet? Was it a spiritual image? That wouldn`t make sense because the image the Bible was talking about was physical. Think about this for a minute. For the record, this is NOT an attack on
Christianity. Just a few things that I came up with while actually
really thinking about Christianity and reading my many Bibles.
Faith is not an answer to anything, it has NO explanatory power.
Many people proudly boast that they have faith in their religion
and/or God. Yet, all religions have faith. Are all faiths true? No?
Then faith alone cannot be used as a valid claim of knowledge.
Question everything... only then can you get closer to the
truth. Let`s Start Thinking BP!
Many of you out there may have questions as well, but may
have been too afraid to question your beliefs.It`s not God one is
questioning, it`s what men say about God that should be questioned.

Just added an awesome freethought classic to my page.
Most blacks find it hard to believe that non-belief is part of our heritage. More coming later. |
