Hello!
Posted: Mon Mar 16, 2015 1:11 am
Just a quick introduction. I am new to the site but have been aware of NA for years. I was interested in seeing it get back off the ground and in seeing where this will go. I tend to read more than post but I do post on things that I think I can bring insight to. I understand the need for having different types of sites due to the different places people are at in their understanding of our situation. I will be up front about myself. I am educated and have a BA in Theology and Philosophy and stopped short of completing my MA in Theology and early church history because I came to the conclusion that my worldview recognized christianity as a jewish tool of enslavement. So I simply walked away and decided I could not look at myself in the mirror and live with the reflection if I continued. Sadly there are too many liars in the pulpits that I know personally. Although I am educated I did so after quitting school in the eighth grade and getting a GED to go to work. Degrees are only good for one thing; to impress very stupid people with. Anyone can get a degree just by showing up. I will take a man who can work all day with his hands over a man in a suit every time. I guess what it comes down to for me is I believe talking and discussing are necessary and good things. We do need plans and ideas and people to inspire and follow. However all the great men understood the most important fundamental in any struggle. Without the willingness of the everyday working man willing to get the job done it all comes to naught.
I am medically retired at the ripe old age of 49 due to a very bad accident in 2012 in which I am still recovering. I lost the greatest love of my life in the accident. My wife was my best friend and from good German, Norwegian, Swedish stock. She taught me the importance of family and tradition. Her family is my family and I am truly their son which is amazing to me. My own family I am sad to say was not much of one. I am German, Irish, Scottish,Finish, Danish. My folks divorced when I was 3 and I left home at 15. I am starting to try to do a family tree and plan to travel to the countries my ancestors are from I suppose to find myself. I guess that sounds kinda gay but what do you do? It is what it is lol. I plan on selling my house and belongings and I figured if I drop dead in Norway looking over a fijord a family member looked at sometime in the past how could I ask for more? Maybe Jimmy Marr playing the bagpipes over my remains while my dog howls
