Hello! My name is Andrea James.
I edit on other Wikimedia projects under the user name [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Jokestress Jokestress], a nickname I have used since going online in the 1990s. I spent many years writing jokes for a living, hence the name. I made a few edits here under the [[User:Jokestress]] before I was asked to change my account to my first name and last initial.

I have read most religious texts, and I have read the [[New Testament]] in the original [[koine Greek]]. I majored in Latin and Greek in college. I recommend ''[[Strong's Concordance]]'' by Dr. [[James Strong]] (1822–1894) for anyone interested in scholarly study of the Bible. If you are a student of Greek, I recommend reading the [[Book of Acts]] in ''koine'', as the style is very straightforward.
I do not plan to edit here often. I joined because now and then I see a case of egregious abuse of this wiki. My plan is to mention it to Conservapedia editors I respect from my time working on Wikipedia. I'll let them handle things from there out.
