Greetings everyone,

My name is Jodash. I have been reading lots of posts here for several months and decided I would join, so I could add my two cents to discussions that interest me.

I'm not new to "alternative news" and unpopular opinion (anything outside the mainstream), and have been following dozens and dozens of "conspiracy theories" for several years.

I spend a lot of my free time just thinking about many of the things that are discussed here. I may do research/fact checking on ideas that don't sound quite right, but mostly I simply engage my critical thinking.

There's a lot more about me, of course, but I figure that my initial monologue should be short and to the point.

Hi, I'm a newbie too.

Welcome to ATS.

Isn't it great to have a place to express these alternative ideas and to be able to connect with other like minds with similar interests.?

See ya round.

As for me I try to improve my heart and mind in daily life and I actually believe the higher science and the true meaning of life lies in improving our character until we reach our maximum level.

Of course, we need an orthodox theory to improve ourselves. I practice Falun Dafa(Qi Gong from China, now banned by the Communists because 100 million people started doing it in 7 years..) and I try to assimilate myself to Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance in daily life.

It is not so easy to love those people who dislike you but actually ity is those people who really can make you improve, so please cherish them the most...

Just my two cents, no truth offered.

I wish you all the best in the future.

/Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good, Falun Dafa is good
