Hey

[Dickson]

Good morning, all.  I'm Dickson, a 29 year-old English teacher from the southern U.S.  I identify myself as a Christian, but hang on:  I'm not one of those dickhead evangelical turds.  I love Jesus, no doubt about it, but I think lots of folks get him wrong.  I'm not here to change anyone's soul--I just like conversation about religion.  

When I'm not posting on Internet forums, I spend time writing poetry, reading, hiking, and drinking good beer (no Miller Lite).  I'm also a competent cook and, ironically, a bad speller.  

Looking forward to meeting all of y'all!

Welcome. I'm from the South as well (South Carolina), an English (among other subjects) teacher of over 26 years now, and glad to hear you're not "one of those dickhead evangelical turds".
The conversations here are civil and you should feel quite welcome.

i love having debates with people of all sorts of opinions, so looking forward to discussing stuff with you.
i'm jennifer and i'm also from the south (well, the south of Austria, but it still counts )

Welcome. I'm a bit of a newbie myself.

An English teacher and a poor speller. You'll fit right in here.   Most of us have our own... contradictions, to be sure!

Welcome and hope you enjoy!

Welcome to HAF! That's funny, I've had a lot of english teachers that were bad spellers as well, go figure.

Happy posting!

Welcome to the forum and thanks for the introduction. We don't take points off for spelling. If we did, I'd be banned from this place.

Hi.  Welcome to the forum.

[Dickson]

Thanks, guys (and gals?) for the warm welcomes.  Looking forward to the conversations to come (and the Guiness I'm about to have!)

[EvolutionCalling]

I liked you up until the Miller comment.  I suppose you don't drink out of cans either.

Hi.

I do get the impression that you are not a "turn or burn" type. If I'm right, welcome to the forums.
