Outspoken, straight talker, you either like me or you don't. Some don't like me cuz their friends have a problem with me, even tho I've done nothing to them personally...lol I consider myself well-read, pretty well travelled and a rational thinker.

As long as you're rational and humble enough to admit when you've been shown wrong on a point, I'll get along fine with you! Then again, maybe you'll just be right all the time... wink

LOL. If someone shows me I'm wrong with facts, I gladly accept it. The tricky thing about debating religion is that we all have our own interpretations and beliefs and the topic itself can become very volatile. There is always the chance that we will either run across someone who crams their beliefs down our throats and/or puts their fingers in their ears when they don't want to hear opposing views. Hopefully, this guild will have more tolerance for listening and not labelling those who have opposing viewpoints. mrgreen

Sorry if I've seemed a bit absent from this thread but I've been pretty busy trying to get things together with the guild but so far so good.

Name preference- I've been called "dancing" on here, so that'll do.
Age: 23
Religion: my dad is Catholic, I've been Mormon for a bunch of years, am now flirting heavily with Judaism.
Sex/gender: Female
Anything else?
I hang out in the ED too much, which means that sometimes I may come off as more aggressive than I intend to, and may take things to be insults that are not. We've all hung around the ED, and know how that goes, but bear with me- apparently my internet manners aren't so hot.
