Battle Mode: Is the Black Community Better Off Without the World Religions?



Michael Balance Williams - Church flow.... 

Religion has killed more people than it has saved. Christianity is is a slave tool from an oppressor. It destroys the black community. Free.your.mind! The bible is the 29th creation story on record. LOOK IT UP! WHY weren't we taught about the other 28????? There were several other gods that died for his people before Jesus came into books. But you don't believe it so u won't look it up. I've dug deep. Christians were the pagans 2300yrs ago under a white Pharaoh Named Serapis.. whos statues are scattered all over Europe. God is not going to fix problems that you can fix yourself. Racism is not of the devil in the bible. Racism is classism to racist Europeans. Racism started in the Torah and then the bible. Blacks are a cursed people in these books. Why should you have respect for cursed people today??? How can cursed people have respect for one another? Jesus died in a book and not for people sins. Wake up. Wake up. Wake up. If you've never researched what I've researched, how can you say I'm wrong????? You don't know... that you don't know. My claims are not fallacies. They are the truth. The black mind will get better once we put christianity and islam aside. End of story 

Michael Balance Williams - You have guts if you like and or share this post!!! 

Laron Tanner - I respect your point of view and wish more people were as open minded as you are... We have been "force fed" certain things since we were little... Now we have grown up "not in charge of our own minds." We find it easier to just continue believing what we were force fed than to go out and learn for ourselves... No one knows the truth... They choose to believe in what they were told... 

Michael Balance Williams - Yup 

Michael Balance Williams - This was a comment on someone else's page. I decided to make it a post on mine. 

Oh Damn - Well said

Why? 

Michael Balance Williams - This was 'my' comment on someone else's page. 

Michael Balance Williams - My choice 

Kathy J Ebert - Was told all my life that the Jews were Gods chosen people, well.........thats a bunch of nonsense. Yes in order to have peace in this world they are going to have to get away from all the nonsense we were taught growing up. 

Muhammad Rasheed - In the bible, the reason they were the "chosen people" was for God to fulfill the covenant to the patriarchs. The covenant was fulfilled once Moses brought the children of Israel to the River Jordan. At that point, God said that His chosen people were all those who chose to believe in Him and follow the righteous path. 

Michael Balance Williams - Prove it 

Muhammad Rasheed - Deuteronomy chapters 29 & 30 are Moses' final speech to the children of Israel at the edge of the Jordan. In it, among other things, he announces that they are to follow the commands of the Lord and be blessed, and if they reject those commands they will be cursed and cut off. 

Muhammad Rasheed - Now prove how "religion has killed more people than it has saved." How does religion kill people? 

Muhammad Rasheed - Michael Balance Williams wrote: "Christianity is is a slave tool from an oppressor. It destroys the black community." 

The oldest Christian church in the world is a Black African one, that predates the American slave trade by many, many centuries. So how is it a tool of the oppressor exactly? Also are you aware that the driving force behind getting the Civil Rights Act passed, and removing the stench of jim crow, was the black church? Remember Martin Luther King, Jr.'s group? Does that sound as if Christianity was destroying the black community? Because it seems to me that it was strengthening it, which would be the exact opposite of your claims. 

Michael Balance Williams wrote: "Free.your.mind!" 

Based on those two items alone it doesn't sound as if your mind is free. Can you have a free mind if you are regurgitating nonsense without thinking it through while presenting it as fact? The slave mind does that.

Why are the other 28 relevant? Which ones are supported by the facts of science? I know the ones revealed in Abrahamic scripture are. Anything involving vomiting, or giant turtles, etc., probably aren't. 

Muhammad Rasheed - Michael Balance Williams wrote: "Christians were the pagans 2300yrs ago under a white Pharaoh Named Serapis.. whos statues are scattered all over Europe." 

This is a confused jumble. Ptolemy I was a Macedonian general under Alexander who became the ruler of Egypt (obviously this was during a mighty low point in Egyptian history). He was no more a "pharoah" than conquering America and proclaiming yourself ruler would make you "president of the United States."  Ptolemy I was eager for the Egyptians and Greeks to get along in his new kingdom, so he created a new god called 'Serapis' and built a cult around it as part of his marketing campaign. Serapis was depicted as a Greek wearing the Egyptian costume, and was supposed to represent the perfect combination of the two. Was "Christians were the pagans" supposed to mean that Christians were the minority during that time period? Christians exhibit pagan-like behavior when they decide to worship the Christ instead of the One God of Abraham exclusively. 

Muhammad Rasheed - Michael Balance Williams wrote: "God is not going to fix problems that you can fix yourself." 

This is a fake strawman argument that you are pretending belongs to religion, which is often the case with atheists. That doesn't represent a "free mind" either. Show me in scripture where it says God is supposed to fix all of your problems for you. He gave us Free Will for a reason. 

Muhammad Rasheed - Michael Balance Williams wrote: "Racism is not of the devil in the bible. Racism is classism to racist Europeans. Racism started in the Torah and then the bible. Blacks are a cursed people in these books." 

Where?

You haven't demonstrated any research yet. What you demonstrate is someone on Facebook that posts stuff he half-assed heard from other places (like in a Facebook meme), while pretending (poorly) that he actually researched something. This is my primary critique with you. Someone that has actually researched can answer the questions asked of them based on that research. You are a professional question ducker, who gets defensive whenever someone asks him to explain one of these random posts. 

Muhammad Rasheed - Michael Balance Williams wrote: "...how can you say I'm wrong?????" 

Prove that you are right. 

Muhammad Rasheed - Michael Balance Williams wrote: "You don't know... that you don't know." 

I know that you know nothing. 

Michael Balance Williams wrote: "My claims are not fallacies." 

Your claims are unsubstantiated foolishness that you can't back up. 

Michael Balance Williams wrote: "They are the truth." 

The truth is supported by facts. Your claims are devoid of fact. End of story. 

Michael Balance Williams wrote: "The black mind will get better once we put christianity and islam aside." 

Because Michael Balance Williams said so? That's a fallacy.

I don't think you know what "guts" are, Michael.
