Let's Meet Our Good Pal:
willottica
I'm a Canadian. I'm a Catholic. I'm a computer scientist who'll soon be trading his computer for a classroom.
I'm an actor. I'm a singer. I'm a lover. I'm a dreamer. I'm a politically active 30-something. I'm a pacifist. I'm pro-life but pro-Choice. I'm in favour of gay marriage, straight marriage, open marriage, and multiple marriage, so long as all participants are fully consenting adults.
I'm in favor of optional prayer in the classroom, in the park, in the workplace, in traffic. Freedom of religion means freedom: to practice it, to ignore it, to discuss it, to criticize it, to ridicule it, to defend it -- to do anything but control it. Or control others with it.
I'm prone to spend way too much time "Propelling". I'm an addict. I'm coping.
