From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Who am I? I'm a Gothic Libertarian Pagan philosopher from California.

I'm not a major editor of Wikipedia, but am instead a bit player. I know a little bit about this and that and make contributions when I can.

Picture of the Day

[edit]
Finding in the Temple
The Finding in the Temple, also called Christ among the Doctors, the Disputation in the Temple and variations of those names, is an episode in the early life of Jesus depicted in chapter 2 of the Gospel of Luke. It is the only event of the later childhood of Jesus mentioned in a canonical gospel. In the episode, Jesus – at the age of twelve – accompanies Mary, Joseph, and a large group of their relatives and friends to Jerusalem on many pilgrimages. On the day of their return, Jesus remained in the Temple. Mary and Joseph returned home believing he was among their group when he was not. After a day of travel they realised Jesus was missing and returned to Jerusalem, finding him three days later. He was found in the Temple in discussion with the elders, "listening to them and asking them questions". When admonished by Mary, Jesus replied: "How is it that you sought me? Did you not know that I must be in my Father's house?" The Finding in the Temple is frequently shown in art. This representation, titled The Finding of the Saviour in the Temple, is an oil-on-canvas painting produced by William Holman Hunt in 1860. It now hangs in the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery in Birmingham, England.Painting credit: William Holman Hunt

Politics

[edit]

I participate in the Political Spectrum article from time to time, mostly in the Alternate Spectra section.

I also participate in articles about Libertarianism when I can.

Comics

[edit]

Having been a fan for years, I try to add what I can to the Comics pages. I was the one who first inserted the idea in The Joker that his insanity might be a Super Power.

Special Projects

[edit]

Once a week I review the articles for deletion votes and chime in.

I also look at New Pages, New Images, and especially Recent Changes occasionally because that is where most problems occur.

I'm not a member of any special projects team though.

Religious Imposters

[edit]

I'm working on impostors Mike Warnke, Laurel Rose Willson, John Todd (occultist), Hershel Smith, Rebecca Brown (Christian author), and William Schnoebelen to link them to the category Impostors as a step to possibly create a Relgious Impostors category. If you know of more frauds like these, let me know.
