Hmmm.......I am a native New Mexican (it helps to say it out loud) who was raised by Texans in Texas, but relocated to New York over eleven years ago.

I have a wonderful wife, three great kids, a job that I love, and a lot of interests.

Most of my writing until now has been on the website https://scottythinks.com/ I am definitely a writer. That’s not a claim to quality just to the compulsion to write. My computer is filled with things I have written in the last twenty years.

I am passionate about my family.

I am passionate about understanding the Enlightenment period and how it shaped and continues to shape Western culture.

I am passionate about philosophical theology.

I am passionate about values and morality.

I am an independent conservative.

I’m sick of Facebook .

I’m sick of the news.

I am highly interested in topics that address the issues that arise where Christ intersects with culture.

All that being said, I am most passionate about the existence of God, God Himself and His Divine Self-revelation in the Trinity, about God’s Son Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and truth.

These are the most important things but I am also fascinated and invested in cryptocurrency. I love the Steemit vision and opportunity! So I am all in.

Welcome to Steemit @scottythinks! I can't wait to read some of your posts on Christ and culture. I think those could be excellent pieces.

In case you haven't already seen Steemit is just one platform of the overall Steem community. If you haven't already seen you can replace many social networks by using Steem based platforms like this:

Replace Reddit for Steemit - www.steemit.com
Replace YouTube for D.tube - d.tube
Replace Twitter for Zappl - www.zappl.com
Replace Instagram for Steepshot - www.steepshot.io
Replace SoundCloud for DSound - www.dsound.audio
Replace Periscope for DLive - www.dlive.io

While each of these sites have a community built around their product offering for the Steem ecosystem, they all still post to the same Steem blockchain. So when you view on Steemit you will see all posts that go to the blockchain while viewing on the independent channels may restrict to just content that was created on their network.

Regardless of what platform you use to interact you still earn rewards based in Steem for participating. It just makes so much more sense than using the centralized platforms of the past. You can even earn rewards just for voting other people’s stuff up!

If you ever have leftover voting power you can use tools like smartsteem which allow you to sell your leftover daily voting power in return for extra SBD. It’s a great way to earn a few extra rewards whenever you’re too busy to vote for good content yourself.

I know I just laid a lot out there but if there's anything I can do to help please just ask! I’m more than happy to share what knowledge I’ve found using the platform.

Thanks Patrick! I had no idea about all of those alternatives. I will definitely check them. I didn't know I had daily voting power. It's a little overwhelming but well-worth figring out. Thanks again!

Yeah you have roughly 11 votes a day worth of regeneration. You can do more than 11 in a day but you won't have the same strength until it regenerates what's left. If you go to steemblockexplorer.com/@patrickulrich but replace my name with yours you can see where your at and what your upvotes are worth.
