ORIGIN STORY

A little bit about the Secular Skeptic

Growing up, I could frequently be found putting pencil to paper when I wasn't eagerly reading the latest Calvin and Hobbes and science fiction novels. I knew from an early age that either drawing or writing would shape my future. 

​

Indeed, I would eventually go on to graduate from a digital animation course in 2002, and a couple of years later decided to embark into the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology's Journalism Arts print media program, which I completed successfully near the top of my class in 2006. 

​

Inspiring leaders of men such as MLK Jr., passionate human rights activists like Malcolm X, eloquently articulate scholars such as Carl Sagan, as well as introspectively hilarious yet thought-provoking comedians like George Carlin and creative story tellers like cartoonist Bill Watterson, have played pivotal roles in influencing my worldview. 

​

I'm a stout secularist who considers the separation of church and state sacrosanct, pun intended. History has always shown theological regimes invariably end up oppressing "the other," or "non-believer." 

​

I'm also a skeptic at heart who frequently questions the status quo, and won't hesitate to criticize left- or right-wing perspectives, although I find the latter generally more flawed.  

​

While I enjoy working for a small rural newspaper, I've long thought about but procrastinated publishing a blog to share the musings of my mind. That is, of course, until now!
