@cAPSLOCK: I probably should have said 'in a conservative Reformed institution'.

The institution I attended was Protestant and had a mild evangelical lean, and they would be moderately conservative in their doctrinal stances. So, in that regard, it would be certainly considered "reformed" theologically.

That said, my own doctrinal positions would not necessarily line up one for one with theirs.  My personal positions on many points of argument between various denominations and streams of Christianity is quite loosely held and often agnostic.  In fact, I hold a very small core set of beliefs firmly, and those would be most accurately represented by the first creed.

My faith is at its root experiential, philosophical and not really conforming to a set of doctrines outside of what I point to above at the core.

8761 hours on the forum... that means I'm not quite a master yet. 51 and 2/3 days left to go.

I’m on 246 days, it’s crazy really when you think about it. If the average lifetime is 82 years or something, we have spent a not insignificant amount of our life on bitcointalk. I’m not sure if it’s a good thing or not, buddy.

I'm better than both of you

Personally, I don't consider it a waste of time or time poorly spent. If I could choose between playing online games, watching TV or some other modern activity, I think I chose well.

@cAPSLOCK: That's interesting. It sounds like a Wesleyan-Arminian stance, in which you moved away from rigid systematic theology toward a more lived, mystery-oriented faith. I can imagine someone sitting in a seminary classroom, wrestled with the Westminster Confession or the 39 Articles, and decide to simplify back to the Apostles' Creed. That reminds me of a Moravian focused tradition.  

PS - Do you remember Kimberly Lawson, Richard's wife, at The Garage?

I have always felt an affinity for the Quakers and for Charismatics for that matter, probably the opposite extreme in the mystical Christian experience.

I do not know the people you mentioned.

Okay, Richard and Kimberly owned The Garage music-venue on 7th St where I'm from...  Thought you had played there at times.

Looking at those numbers is a bit of a wake up call, isn't it? But Lucius, I think you hit the nail on the head. We all choose how to spend our lives, and there’s something special about the years we’ve spent learning and growing together here. 393 days is a massive commitment, but if it brought knowledge and community, I’d say it’s a life well lived, not just time logged in.

It hasn't been a bad way to get an education and make a buck.  I often wonder if I'm over or underpaid for the effort I put into this website.  If given the option to go back in time, I would probably just buy Bitcoin and never sign up for this site, or leave the moment it stopped being majority Libertarian participants.  Still, great memories.  In that golden age from 2011-2016 this place was probably the best website one could participate on.  Then suddenly, everything changed...

That is super cool! Very impressed!

The Stevens Center is a premier downtown 1,300-seat performing arts theater owned by UNCSA hosting frequent Orchestra, Wind ensemble, Pop, Rock, Hip Hop, Classical, Folk, Jazz, Country, Electronic, and Blues band concerts, and where major touring Broadway shows stop and where high-end gala events are held.

What music genre/subgenres did you/do you specialize in?
