I am currently a student at Purdue, pursuing a doctorate in Philosophy. I currently T.A. the class "Religions of the East".

My main research focus is Philosophy of Religion, which I would consider myself an authority on. I would rate my self with regards to the following subjects as follows:

Minor Authority: Epistemology, and Metaphysics, Philosophy of Science, Idealism, Pragmatism, Plato, Hume, J.L. Mackie, Christian Apologetics, Catholicism and Catholic Theology, Zen Buddhism, and C.S. Lewis (including his life, fiction, apologetics, philosophical works, devotional works, essays, and extant unpublished writings; I am NOT directly familiar with his correspondence)

I have fairly extensive, but by no means exhaustive knowledge of: Hinduism, Buddhism, Educational Theory, Astronomy, Physical Cosmology, the History of Science, and Mysticism in the context of contemporary world religions. Snowboardpunk (talk) 05:30, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
