Hey peeps! In the following paragraphs I will briefly describe how I discovered this website/forum, and also a little bit about myself and my life...
4 years ago I was 17 years old and into the video game craze with xbox and Halo and all that. I still do play some video games with friends on occasion but that is beyond the point. I decided (4 years ago) to join a Halo forum website, where I could talk and discuss Halo with other people. Long story short, I am still a part of that forum (halo3forum.com) and below my avatar I linked my profile if you wish to view it. Like I said, been there for 4 years, my join date is Jun 05, and I have around 2,300 posts.
Considering that Halo is the Mecca of video gaming, and also that halo3forum was created just 3 months prior to my joining, and lastly that I am an active member, I am decently respected (or at least I like to think so
). There is a section of that forum titled "Religious Debate", needless to say, that is now where I spend almost all of my time on that site, that and the NHL discussion section haha. I would say about 95% of the members on h3f are atheists/agnostic/not Christian. So it can get quite exhausting/tiring/pointless to sit in there and "debate" against 10 other people almost simultaneously, while I am the lone ranger.
One day while in that forum, someone mockingly posted about this website, and they said how ridiculous it was. I checked it out and fell in love. I love this website, I cannot believe how intelligent and wise Richard Deem is, it is astounding to me. Especially considering I am a Theistic Evolutionist, and I tend to argue that evolution does nothing but solidify the proof of God's existence. I get a lot of my reference from Dr. William Lane Craig.
So long story short, that is how I discovered this site/forum, and that is why I am here today.
About myself, I am currently 21 pursuing to become a Cop. I have a Japanese (I love to brag that she is Japanese) gf, we have been dating for 3 years and plan to get engaged soon, and then plan to be missionaries one day in the near future hopefully. We have both served several short term trips and definitely feel that that is where God is leading us in the future. I grew up in the church, then stopped going and became atheistic from about 13-18, then returned to God at about 18.
My favorite things to discuss with other Christians is God's nature, theology, moral/ethics, "heart vs head", and philosophy.
I love hockey (hence the sig and avy). I am not from Washington I just love the Capitals, and yes, I am Norwegian, so I love my fellow European hockey players, especially the Swedish ones, they are the best. If you want to find out more of my other interests check out my profile. I live in Huntington Beach, California. Born and raised and not planning on leaving anytime soon. Best state and best city in the world. I have traveled all over the place, but in the end, nothing compares.
I commend those of you (if any) that have made it this far in the reading, I really did not intend to post a novel lol. Hope you enjoyed, and if you have any questions or comments PM me or just post here, look forward to chatting soon!
