I've heard a lot about this site while browsing other sites, so I figured I'd give it a whirl. I'm 21, just graduated from undergrad and will be attending graduate school in the fall to study bioarchaeology and forensic anthropology. While biological anthropology is my career path, I'm interested in essentially all the sciences, with physics and engineering ranking pretty highly. I consider myself a disciple of the teachings of Jesus Christ with no particular affiliation to a Christian denomination, and I'm willing to discuss it with anyone if they are interested. However, I feel that debates about faith always end up going in circles, so I tend to avoid them. I tend to lurk and read more than post, since I feel it's wise to listen more than you speak. With all that said, I'm excited to see what new insights I can glean from you all.

Hi Paloma, and welcome. I hope you'll feel you're able to exchange views on whichever topic you see fit to join (lurking is also fine, of course); a variety of perspectives is a valuable asset to a discussion board.

Welcome, Paloma.
Most of what we talk about here isn't about religion anyway. If you ever feel you wish to talk about anything whatsoever, just open up a thread.
