Hello, World! (or parts of it)

Hello Steemit,

20180508_185353.jpg

I'm new-ish around here. I've been holding off on formerly introducing myself as I learned to get a lay of the land, but I've read it might be prudent to say "Hi!" sooner than later so... Hi!

I'm turning 32 in a week and hail from Michigan, USA.

As to why I'm here: getting away from censorship and the exploitation of my content by media companies like Facebook. The whole, "you can earn money from your posts" thing is really fascinating, but, in all honesty, I find the exchange of ideas far more rewarding.

As to my interests, they are wide and varied, but the topics I write about most are the ones people shy away from the most: politics and religion.

I'm a Christian who holds to the 1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith . I like to study and discuss theology and apologetics - the latter of which is a reasoned defense of the faith.

In regards to politics, I'm a Constitutionist, which is a type of minarchist, which falls on the Conservative end of the Libertarian spectrum.

That's not to say these are my only interests. I love to write, play PC Games (Fortnite: Save The World, Rocket League , right now, but also AI HoTS, Overwatch, and StarCraft II), cycle around my small town, design graphics and WordPress websites, table tennis, disc golf, long walks on the sand...

And I love to learn new and random things, which I think is why Steemit is so cool because of how eclectic and unique the userbase is compared to your average social media site.

I appreciate the opportunity to be here and meet new people. If you've taken the time to read this far... Thanks!
