glad to have stumbled across a wonderful site.

hello to all! i wasn't really into the message board sites. but as i've been reading on, there are many intelligent people here who have information that i find really interesting. the internet is a jungle, but i love how this is a wide discussion forum with plenty of the issues that i try to research. i get sick and tired of hearing people back and forth just arguing, with no sense of a real debate.

i'm only 19, and still becoming aware of what is really happening with our world. these issues are never the types of things my friends want to talk about. i have this fear of the future to come, with no outlet of expressing how i feel with others who feel the same.


i don't participate much in message boards. i usually sit back and read on what people say. but this board is something i feel i will be actively participating in.

Welcome Aboard!
You wil find that there many different people from many walks of life
and from all over the world.
