[edit] About me
I have been a registered Wikipedian since September 27, 2004 but have been contributing since May 2004. My main area of interest is spirituality. My influences have been very varied but key among them would be the Hermetic, ShahMai, Neopagan, New age (for want of a better term) and Thelemic traditions, as well as many elements of Eastern religions, notably Ahimsa and the Jain and Buddhist religions. I consider myself a Humanitarian and believe strongly in the positive principle of nonviolent resistance. I am a vegan and a life-long abstainer from drugs and alcohol, which is both a social statement in terms of the context of contemporary drug use, and a personal spiritual discipline.
[edit] Wikipedia
- Neutral point of view - I am a strong supporter of the policy of NPOV. I am especially interested in supporting fairness in the face of so called skepticism found in many spiritual and paranormal articles.
- Inclusionist - I would define myself as an inclusionist as I believe many articles are overly general and would benefit from more specific sub-articles. I also believe in supporting minority interest articles on Wikipedia.
- Personal attacks - I take a policy of not making personal attacks or replying to them
[edit] Political views
[edit] Positive Action
I am also involved in positive action against capital punishment and the exploitation of people in poverty as well as the destruction of the environment. Essentially I believe in human rights (as laid down in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights), freedom of speech, tolerance and compassion. I support Amnesty International, Greenpeace, CND and most if not all groups and individuals involved in the peace movement. I also work for a humanitarian organisation in London with a focus on developing democracy.
