Hey everybody.

Of course, this is my first post on this website. My name is James, and I am a Christian--more specifically, Southern Baptist. I'm 19 and I will begin my second year of college in a few weeks (I had one year of community college, but now get to move out!).

My favorite parts of the Bible to read are Genesis and Proverbs. I like Genesis because by my beliefs it gives us a record of what many scientists and anthropologists are baffled by. I also like Proverbs because from reading it, it gives us what laws we should follow (Don't procreate with so-and-so, don't eat this, don't do that), and I like knowing what I should and shouldn't be doing.

I looked around here before deciding to join, and it looks like a place I could have some good discussion about the Word of God. I'm sure this website and its members will exceed my expectations!

I think you're right and I loved your intro.

I think we could all do with some structure in our lives and I like that you openly admit your need for it.

Mind if I ask what your major is going to be (if you've chosen one)?

Luv

Hi newbie!

Welcome to this place.
Lots of great discussions.

I lived in Raleigh for 4 years awhile back.
I thought it was a wonderful state, except for the summers. That humidity will kill ya! Laughing
