I am in the same boat as VirtualAdept. I've been following luke's blog forever which naturally lead me to LW, and whilst I'm still very in my Rational Infancy, I am hugely grateful for the gradual steps toward maturity that this site affords me, so I think I was due to register. Problem is it also makes me more and more frustrated at the lack of rationality surrounding me, especially as an exchristian with a very devout evangelical family and friend network. I mean I'm no Eliezer, but some of these people....

to have content that is accesible, interesting and easily sharable would be fantastic, because the type of people who need these lessons the most are the type of people who will give up at the slightest difficulty.

So my first step is attempting to be more active in this site, then start 'evangelizing' the more accesible parts on mediums like twitter and facebook. after that....the world!

but we'll see....

Mega kudos to Lukeprog and www.lesswrong.com!!
