About Me
- Name: Sagepaper
- Location: United States
An only child and service-brat, I was born in Panama. We lived on Indian Reservations when I was two to four-and-a-half -- crucial years for social development. Culturally, I am a mixed-up White Eyes from Mescalero. I began college at fifteen, enjoying a luxurious seven years of rigorous liberal arts education. Since graduating with a B.A. in Psychology, I have avidly read non-fiction, adding enormously to my formal education. Disabled by Tourette's Syndrome and other conditions, I live in Atlanta's suburbia. My father and husband are both physicians, and share a consulting business. (I am very proud of what they do, but I mention their occupations because people cannot seem to move to another small-talk topic if I simply say I am disabled. They must be told an occupation, and will start asking about family members to get one.)

Murdering for God
While I was at the message board to write a post, I read one that seemed to me to hit the nail on the head. A British lady wrote, "If my religion required me to kill innocent people, I would change my religion. I have a mind of my own!" I think Margaret Thatcher was right when she remarked, "We are one people." This basic view of things is what binds us together, and then separates us from extreme fundamentalists -- regardless of location or denomination.
Looks to me like a lot of people like us, are doing just that!
