g_worroll@hotmail.com Bio31 year old college student, former Marine. I'm currently in a General Studies program at the local community college so I can focus on the computer stuff when I transfer to a four year school.
Music is life. I'll listen to nearly anything. I've got Bheethoven, Lady Gaga, Celtic Woman, Outkast, Toby Keith, Scott Brown, and more in my Mp3 collection. Music is a fusion of everything- there is a connection to the divine, to lower and higher aspects of human nature, to mathematics and physics.
My ancestry is Irish on my mothers side, my branch of the family came over after the Famine. Not for grand dreams, they were hungry and America had food. My fathers side is mostly English, with some Scottish ancestry as well. As part of connecting with my heritage I'm learning Irish. It's not an easy language to learn, but that will make the goal all the sweeter once reached. "Dulcius ex Aspiris"- the motto of Clan Fergusson, which is the Scottish clan I descend from... "Sweeter after difficulties".
Religiously I'm regularly in flux over exactly where I stand. As I've read more on the United States' Founding Fathers, and the Deist philosophy they followed, that seems to be where the core of my belief has really stood consistently. In short, Deism posits that there is a divine Creator who made the world, but it also says that this creator leaves the world to develop on it's own. That said, while I don't believe he does so routinely, I believe that this creator can and does intervene at times. Mostly to guide His creations rather than remake what has already been made. I should note that I use the masculine only because English lacks a suitably respectful neutral pronoun to use for the Creator of All Things. He is the source of all, to suggest He is purely masculine is rather arrogant. If He is purely masculine, where the hell did females come from? Unfortunately, English lacks an appropriate pronoun, and the standing convention has been to use the masculine when gender is unknown or not applicable. Hopefully in time that changes, the gender neutral pronoun we have, "it", just seems a little irreverent when referring to a God.
On languages, then, I'm obviously fluent in English, it's my native language. I mentioned working on learning Irish, I'm also studying Spanish to fill the foreign language requirement of my degree. In terms of ability to communicate, I'm best in English, then Spanish, then Irish.
