  1. @Del I was not familiar with the term "non-theistic". Once you and Troy used it and i looked it up, i accepted that Quakers are a non-theistic religion which is categorized as a "sect". What more acknowledgment do you need?? Or should i say what more validation do you need. So, OK, when i asked Troy "what religion did he know that didn't worship a god?" you supplied the answer: "Quakers." I never thought of Quakers as a religious group. I thought they were like the Amish or even Zen Buddhists; just a "cult" who followed a certain way of life. Even as i was posing that question, however, i wondered if either of you would say "Unitarians" because I'd considered becoming one of them since they do not believe in the Trinity. Obviously, i was wedded to the common definition of religion. And i still am curious as to why such a word came into being since it encompasses 2 different disciplines. The color "black" is "black". When it blends with the color "white", it is called "gray". "Not "white-black". Non-theistic stands on its own and I, personally, have problem with calling it a "religion". But i'm never too old to learn. Thank you for enlightening me.

  2. Hello, My name is Kipjo K. Ewers, I am the author, creator, and founder of the EVO Universe, a site dedicated to creating original, strong, and diverse characters in the realm of science fiction, superhero, fantasy, supernatural, and action adventure. The EVO Universe motto is "EVOLVE OR DIE." I wrote my first novel titled The First in 2014. I followed up with my second novel titled EVO Uprising (Book two of the First Series) in 2015. I wrote and published a spin-off novel series titled the Eye of Ra in 2016. That same year EVO Universe turned from a brand into an actual publishing company, and presented at New York Comic-Con for the first time that year as well in the small press section. I wrote and published my first supernatural romance novel titled Fred & Mary in the summer of 2017. That same year the EVO Universe also presented at Book Con and New York Comic-Con once again in the small press section. This year 2018 I just released my third novel titled Genesis (Book three of the First Series). I am currently writing two novels that I hope to have ready by the end of this year, one is my first fantasy novel, and the second is book two in my Eye of Ra series titled War of Mortal Gods. I also plan to participate in more conventions to get the word out about the EVO Universe, and make my third return to New York Comic Con 2018. My mission is to create powerful storylines and characters that our people can gravitate to and get behind that does not have a Marvel or DC logo on it. Don't get me wrong, I've been a fan of both since I was a kid, and Black Panther was a monumental achievement in diversity and representation shattering levels and kicking down doors. But at the end of the day the character was created and written by Stan Lee. I want to prove that I can write characters for us that are better than Stan Lee. So please feel free to check out my website and work, judge for yourselves, and if you like it, let your family and friends know about me. Thank you for reading.

  3. @Kalexander2 all cynicism and jokes aside Del has a business degree from one of the top business schools on Earth. Indeed, he earned his before I did. I'd also argue that he understood the "value" of said degree before I did too.
