Hello everyone from a new member. I just learned about this site last night and decided to check it out, so far I'm liking what I see.
A (likely boring) introduction of myself. Over some 15 years I have developed my own personal belief system based upon seeking understanding, natural explanations and tolerance.
The roots of my beliefs comes from Ietsism, so technically I'm closer to agnostic-theism though I often consider myself theistic with agnostic views toward any supernatural entity.
I am a moderator/admin in a couple of religious discussion groups on G+ and MeWe. I also own a MeWe group on Archaeology and Anthropology, which I see there is a group for here. 
Some of my interests are in Archaeology, Astronomy, Cosmology, Physics, Geology, hiking, camping and alot of reading mainly science fiction.
Now after my first post boring everyone, I look forward to meeting and interacting with the members here.

As you may have found out,Facebook,has some very Draconian rules about content,I myself have run afoul of postings I put up there,the first "Offense" was a week,the second a month,I could view,and save the postings,but could not respond,as I "Violated their community standards", some how.

the Facebook Community Standards Department, I'm on a 12 month ban in Facebook Gulag for much the same as you have been my friend.
@Mike1947 Your guess is as good as mine.
All I ever did was to express my opinions on subjects like being Pro-Abortion, being an Atheist disputing the Goat-Herders Guide to the Galaxy ( bible), etc, etc, Oh, and that Zuckerberg might want to consider buying a few megatons of breath-mints to freshen his breath after arse-kissing to the minority groups.
Welcome,
This seems like a pretty open community with a lot of different thoughts spread across it.
Have a good time

Looks like the group requires level 4 status, I'll have to earn my place first. I'm somewhat familiar with Dharma so I look forward to learning more.
@ErgodicMage whoops my bad, sorry! Thanks for clueing me in. 
you can hit Lvl 4 in days, if not hours. The first few levels go fast.
Many people here with different beliefs,you should fit right in,responding to posts will raise your levels,I think after #5,you get to post your thoughts and ideas(I could be wrong). Many Countries being represented here,enjoy.

Already reached level 2, and have contributed one post to the Anthropology group.
Welcome! You sound like a thoughtful person with interesting ideas to bring to the discussions. People here can be opinionated, but for the most part genuinely nice. I agree with what others have said, put your info in your bio.

I am well used to the strong opinions that come about through religious/worldview discussions. So far the disagreements I've seen here have been polite.
Welcome to the site, get engaged and have a great time.

"den of heathens" then I should fit in well.
I am looking forward to reading your reasons for clinging to theism, albeit agnostic-theism.

The short answer is it comes from the "seeker" role of my belief system. Is there something or a natural explanation for whatever it is people call "god"? I believe there is though I'm skeptical of the usual supernatural entity based deities that are often part of religions.
Enjoy being online again!
