Hello and welcome!

Your username is familiar... Have you been known as "LOCKE" on other forums in the past?

Any book I grab out of the fiction section in a book store or library, I don't start out by "believing" in that book, it's just (hopefully) an entertaining and good read.

Welcome Locke.

So far you seem like a very level-headed theist, much like my favourite poster Chad Wooters.

Very keen to read what you have to say about your faith, specifically your reasoning/evidences for thinking it to be rationally held by you.

See ya around!

I have, though I've never signed up on a forum of this nature before. John Locke was a philosopher and physician. I guess you could say he was the father of classical liberalism; his ideas led to the free thinking that sparked revolution and reform in European countries, Scotland, and America. He also contributed significantly to the foundations of psychology, considering he initiated many ideas about consciousness, identity and development of the human mind that we still hold today. He dedicated his life to epistomology, ascertaining to analysis, logic, justification and truth in everything.

So basically he was a boss.. And you're probably familiar with many people in media who are meant to imitate him, from the character in Lost to the alias used to establish world order in Ender's Game

The website I had in mind was called Helldot back when a member with that name was posting...

Collect them all!

I think we should get all of the characters from lost, that would be epic.
