Welcome, and glad to have you here!!!  :friendstu:

Tell us a bit about yourself and how you came to find your way here.  :gimmefive:
Socrates taught Plato.  Plato taught Aristotle.  Aristotle tutored the son of Philip of Macedon.  This boy grew up to become Alexander the Great, largely by slaughtering a lot of people.  That's philosophy.

Jesus spoke the Truth.  He blessed the poor.  He healed the sick.  He even raised the dead.  He died on a cross for us, lived again, and came back long enough to tell us to love one another.  That's religion.

YHVH = Behold the Nail, Behold the Hand = Jesus

Thanks for the welcome.  Appreciate it.  Guess have went out of order and explained a little about myself in one of the other two posts have written so far.  To be very open, if not complete, have been exhausted trying to reconcile many things over the years and found the site awhile back.  To illustrate my almost manic state in last two years had joined a hindu forum and a christian one.  This now, is my third ever.  The Christian one sometimes seemed at times eager regarding eternal torment for some and if not this, perhaps almost apathetic.  The Hindu one, was in ways beautiful if not nationalistic for those from India and a recipe for existential disaster for many of those from the west.  Bottom line is am here because know when feel close to God, I am different person, and by this I mean I feel better and feel better towards my fellow created beings.  I feel love and wish most naturally to have mercy and compassion on others.  Probably not making sense on this evening but will leave for tonight that if Jesus is the Oasis of them all, this site and forum are, albeit smaller one, oasis as well and I am for real estactic to be here.

To the brothers and sisters here,
Thanks and Bless you.
Rich

Welcome Rich!  :smile:

Glad to see you Rich.  From what I gather there are not too many sacred cows.  Some bull at times, but general the milk of human kindness is served here in abundance.  Although the other day Micah 7:9 did accuse us of creating a wrangle.
