Introduce Yourself here and say Hi.

Hello all newbies :wave:

Hi everyone, I am also new to this forum, a literature student from Bosnia, and I hope to get some new perspective on the works of my favourite authors. Im especially interested in Lawrence, hope to take his works as a theme for my final paper. Im looking foward to reading your previous and new posts.

Hi from Aotearoa. Looking forward to getting to know you all. Off to browse the forum.

Hello everybody!!! I'm Rafaela.... I've just joined here.... I can't wait to explore this site!!!!

Hey all!

I've been a longtime reader of the Literature Network (I used to subscribe to Sonnet-a-Day when I was 17), but I just discovered the forums today. I'm just shy of 25, and live in Berlin, Germany.

Hello, everyone. http://www.online-literature.com/for...lies/wavey.gif

I just registered and I stopped by here to say hi to all. I'm really excited to go browsing. So off I go! :)

Hey I am new to this site, I am a student of literature and therefore am very inexperienced :/ I would liek to use this site to broaden my literary knowledge :)

Oh why hello. I already have posted, since i didn't realise this was here at all...to anxious to start blabbering perhaps...
anyway, hi.
I'm a philosophy/English/Art history/Italian student from Sydney. Majoring in philosophy, currently in my first year (but i've...sort of skipped to second year, thus why i will probably be hanging around asking ridiculous questions...). Can't decide whether to major in english or art history as well...and italian's just my fun subject lol.
Anywho, thanks for having me :)

Hi and welcome all ! :wave:

But I believe that being either or both is something which is between you and God. The problem comes when you are tied to a Christian sect or congregation. Most of these preach that "they" are the only way to salvation.

If either one insists on their exclusivity (which true Buddhists will not because their quest is for the road to enlightenment), run in the other direction. Technically, Buddhism is not a theological philosophy but is much closed to Universalism.
