His profile on at least one of those sites lists him as a 28-year-old male, so I assume he is past the age of homeschooling.
We sometimes see people here who will post a few short things, then suddenly add a link to their blog/ website/ money-making scheme. The OP's posts seemed to have that vibe, especially when combining such a folksy vernacular with a very personal question.
In contrast, most of the "legit" new members here have a purpose and ask for advice about college-related issues. They are also very nice, I hasten to add. This particular poster seems to be a one-off.
I gathered that the intention of many of the posters above was to keep this forum focused on academic questions rather than religious ones. Many people here are very religious, others are not, and the fact that we all respect each other and focus on academic issues is one of the great things about this forum.
I knew he was talking about Jesus Christ and just about anything goes in the off-topic sub-forum. However, like you said, this poster gives off the vibes of a spammer. I could be wrong with this assumption, but his other posts were odd. We've had posters in the past who will make a few posts just to get their post count up and appear somewhat legitimate and then start to make posts with links or a pitch of a for-profit service.
