Hey ATS, I have read lots of forums and topics on this website from my brother Dalan. ( his ATS is dalan. ) But i decided to join in a further my knowledge on everything and hopefully contribute something constructive to this site.
Forgive me if i do something wrong for i am new to this site and a little rough around the edges when it comes to talking about my own ideas, Probably because im 18. But never the less Hello to all ATS

Welcome to ATS!

Age isn't much of a worry here, there are plenty of younger members that I would mistake for people in their 60's with the kind of insight they show. As long as you remain civil and respectufll, arguing is what ATS is all about.

I look forward to your contributions on the boards

Ha thank you, But i love being an idealist the world is full of possibilities and hope for the future to me, And i will be respectful, I am not going to try and make anyone mad or dis respect, But
I will argue and debate things in a respectable fashion. If i did not then i would never learn anything new or if I am right or wrong about something. Hopefully i can post something significant.

Just remember, whether young or old, your opinion carries equal weight in a debate..
Don't let some members tell you different..
It's truth that matters, not age or credentials..


Have fun...

Hey Donald, welcome to the asylum! We're mostly mad here (except me, I'm completely sane).... but... we have the keys & we're in control (sometimes)

"i am new to this site and a little rough around the edges"

That's ok, we have files & sandpaper.

Ha apologies, Anyways what i want to know is how you would react to one of my ideas. To me our society seems to need some re design, Now one of the problems i see to have the biggest effect on people is fear and their willingness to sit back and be apathetic, Now having said that what if there was a way to unite people and and help them decide to wanna make differences in the world. Well my idea is a program, You get a gathering of like minded people and have them call a stranger for an hour and try to get to know them. The reason for this is because of people in ability to understand someone else bu if you call a stranger and get involved with them for an hour, You understand them better and come to understand other people more. But have them pay it forward and call others, Now if you have people understanding others and knowing how they feel they would be more inclined to talk about things to be and discuss things hence being a little bit less apathetic and scared of leaving their living rooms, Now what would you say to an idea like this if it was brought up to you in a sort of Meeting between people?

I think in many ways it's already being done..
Many are waking up to the illusions created by the few..
The internet has sped up the process by giving more people rapid access to sources outside the control of those in power..

You only have a few posts to go before you may start a thread..
Until then this is just an intro thread..

I know i tried to make a thread earlier but i have to have more post's. I believe your right, But anything to speed up the process of people uniting and understanding one another is a dream and goal worth fighting for to me at least. I would love to see the world as a more beautiful place to live in and less hostile for people. Yes an introduction to my ideas i guess until i can post elsewhere. Thank you for your insight

Well done! You have stumbled upon a most ancient secret known only to those in the higher echelons of society, specifically those in government! We at ATS like to refer to this concept as 'Utopia' Some say it does not exist, but our leaders are well informed & assure us that it does. We here at ATS frequently debate this issue.

Welcome.

Thank you, And i like to believe that i have only scratched the surface to the vast amount of knowledge that i can obtain from those around me and the things i can see. I would love to see a "Utopia" and would most definitely fight for one. No in my opinion it dose not exist, Not yet at least.

Welcome to DonaldNewcomb! I'll second what backinblack says. And I wouldn't worry too much about speeding up the process of what is taking place. You must stay on target, do what YOU have to do. The process will take care of itself. Best of luck to you.
