I was raised Lutheran and learned my faith from Evangelicals. I'm taking RCIA classes... I will probably join the Catholic church. I'm in between theologies, I believe in the Protestant ideas of us being saved by grace alone, but I love the mass, the ligurgy, and the beautiful chants surrounding the (better) Catholic traditions. (I won't mention the others here, but... eck, every group has it's share of hypocrites.) My spiritual history is a complicated story, I guess I could summarize it by saying that I believe God has spoken to me multiple times and He's guided me a lot over the past few years.
If that's too preach-y for this forum let me know
dang I love these smilies...

Show us a song!!
As for the libertarian thing... I think it requires a truly unbiased government to work... as long as lobbying exists, the libertarian view is crap, as government ends up catering for the interests of a few companies and all other can screw themselves. Monopoly, baby!
That's enough politics for one post.
Otherwise, enjoy your time around here, see you around!
As in... show you me singing a song? I have been planning to record one within the month but I don't have the technology figured out yet... Or are you, like, asking what my favorite song is?
I really like the idea of a constitution to keep the government in check. The US constitution is good, I might prefer a stricter one (or at least removal of a few clauses such as the commerce clause) but yea, that's the best defence because the government can only cater so much. I don't think there's such thing as a truly unbiased government. If there's anything history makes obvious, it's that humans are biased.
Thanks again, I am enjoying this forum already
