I am a born again Christian, committed to the traditional, fundamental views as contained in the Authorized King James Version of the Holy Bible, which was fully inspired by God. This includes Conservative stands on Abortion, Homosexuality, Prostitution, Law and Order, the Separation of Church and State in the sense of not having a government-enforced faith or religion, but allowing prayers to the Christian God to proclaim New Zealand and other countries who are like that, as a Christian nation. I believe in the right of people to receive equal pay for equal work, and a fair rate of pay for people to make ends meet, and do not believe that the rich should have it all their way, as the Bible warns against that, and nor do I support the idea of scab workers breaking strikes - the only exception would be strikes by necessary workers such as hospital staff, etc., where the paymasters ought to be more reasonable. I support a decent welfare system as a helping hand but not a way of life, and universal health care and free education to all, if they desire it - but also the right for parents to bring their own children up through home schooling. I believe we have a right to exploit our natural resources, but not to abuse them nor destroy the environment we all have to live in, for we do not know how long the Lord will tarry before He returns, as He promised. I believe in the onus on the Crown to prove guilt in a criminal case, and in Capital Punishment as well, when the guilt of the accused has been proven beyond all reasonable doubt, but also in a good deal of rehabilitation along with the punishment criminals receive, since most will get out some day, and prison as it is makes them worse - but being aware that many criminals do not care about changing their ways. In saying this, God Himself does change lives through His Genuine Gospel, by repentance toward God, and Faith in the Blood Atonement Death, Burial and Resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. I have been an avid studier of History for over thirty years, especially Mediaeval and Civil War era Britain, Imperial Rome, Ancient Israel, China and Japan. I have also gone back to the study and practice of Mathematics for the past eighteen years, and I have even come up with certain mathematical equations and theories of my own. I have attempted to edit many Wikipedia articles, and have found on there, some liberally-biased tendencies of some, but certainly not all, of the articles, but also of a number of the contributors, but will continue to use it more as an online Encyclopaedia, but certainly not to shape nor influenced my God-given views on Life. I am especially proud of the information I gave on my own home town of Kaiapoi still being there. I like the easy, up to date and comprehensive access available on Wikipedia, and hope to find useful information and news on Conservapedia, and to help it also.
I left University halfway through a Bachelor of Arts with Honours in History, because of the left wing bias I saw with the instructors, who made no secret about it, and the course material they gave us to read, which only showed the liberal side, and with the overall "inclusiveness" policy of the University, and their backing of so called diversity with respect especially to gay rights. God will welcome homosexuals, but only if they repent and believe on Him, rather than paying lip service to His existence, but carrying on as normal. But let us not forget that we are all sinners, and the Answer to life is the Lord Himself.
