I talked to a Co-worker of mine that I recently found out used to be a Jehovah's Witness. After an experience he was excommunicated by both his family and church. We talk about that and his journey out of the Jehovah's Witness religion.

Mandisa Thomas is the President and Founder of the non profit organization Black Nonbelievers. I think this is one of the most important conversations I've had on the podcast. It is more important than ever to stand against the negative political climate that religion (Christianity) has done and is doing to this country. As a black person who was raised in a Christian house, I felt the need to analyze my beliefs using critical thinking and it is my effort that other black people do the same. Black Nonbelievers is an organization that is dedicated to spreading this exact message. Please take the time and listen to our conversation and actually think about your beliefs.

On this episode of Virtue Reality Me and Ozzy bring on another Joe and talk about his religious views. I have been wanting to have a religious person on this show to get to understand why they think what they think. And after this conversation, I believe more than ever that the separation between religion and government is more crucial than its ever been!
