Wild Fact About Me I own land in Scotland which is being restored in nature and wildlife conservation. Duror, Glendaruel, Dunfermline. Also own several small plots of land worldwide (souvenir plots) for nature and wildlife conservation/restoration purposies.
Also own a few houndred acres of rainforrest, supporting Nature and wildlife conservation / restoration.
By donation supporting, nature and wildlife conservation, food and education in the third world, cancer and MS research, Human Rights, ect.
I'm also sponsoring animals in my local Zoo.
Used to have cats. but living along a heavy traffic rural road, thats no good idea, my last cat got killed.
My Philosophy Always be honest. Don't give a damn what people think about you and your lifestyle. BE YOURSELF.
What Gives Me Hope That eccentric people. like myself, these days can live in most countries in our world, without persecution.
If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by Free healthcare. Food and water for everyone. Extensive nature conservation. Extinsive imprisonment for hatecrimes, enviromental crimes, and crimes against children. Uncensured internet.
Freedom of religion.
What/who changed my life and why The death of my father, because I was raised in a child abusing, extremely violent home. Which has darked my mind my whole life, turning to drugs- and alcoholabuse at a young age. Fortunately I've been clean for 25 years, but the death of my father 8 years ago, finally made me free, I hope.
Secondly: 1984 I was hospitalized nearly dead, due to many years of extensive drug and alcohol abuse. Surviving I went into treatment, and have been clean ever since.
Clean and sober I ended my career as a Diplom Ingenieur, became a socialworker and devoted my life 24/7 for years working with kids, victims of child abuse, incest, ect. Until severe health issues unfortunately forced me into early retirement on government pension.
My deceased girlfriend: When I retired she convinced me to start studying theology. I've got my regular MD, B.Religious Studies, and has been rewarded a nice PhD which looks smashing on paper, but ain't worth anything in practice, since it's awarded from a Religious-exempt not accredited Theological Seminary. I also got a very nice honorary DD, also worth nothing more than a nice Certificate to hang on the wall. Currently I'm widening my religious horizons by taking various on-line courses at Religious-exempt Seminarys/universitys in Gnosticism, Paganism, Wiccanism, ect. (I've got a very open mind).
I'm ordained Pastor working non-profit mainly as a phone counselor.
What Bugs Me Ignorant politicians, Child Abuse, People who use mobile's everywhere, small minded people, The destruction of rural areas, Hate/Racism/Violence, Complainers and whiners, Reduction of public transport
