Brief Biography Of Rev. Bill McGinnis - August, 2006
BORN: September 15, 1943, in Huntington, West Virginia, USA
"I am an Internet Christian minister, American, white, male,
divorced, straight, card-carrying Democrat, pro-democracy,
62-year-old, anti-war, text-to-speech (TTS) file developer,
MIDI music sequencer, Northwestern University graduate (B.S.
- 1965),
writer, editor, and Internet publisher.
I have also been a
church singer, trombonist, and ASE
Certified Automobile Technician. I have been married and divorced
twice, and I have two grown children and one grandchild.
"I believe we are all God's children, no matter what our other differences
may be. I believe that all God's law is fulfilled if we follow this one
teaching: "Love your neighbor as yourself," with the understanding that
"everyone is our neighbor." This means we are to love all people. My main
website is
LoveAllPeople.org,
and I own and maintain various others.
"My public address is 1908 Mt Vernon Ave #2543, Alexandria, VA 22301 USA.
Telephone 703-768-6710. E-mail: bmcgin@patriot.net.
"For those who care, many years ago I was a National Merit
Scholarship finalist and Student Body President at Winter Park High
School, Winter Park, Florida,
1961. I
then went to
Northwestern
University, Evanston, Illinois, attending on an
F. C. Austin scholarship to the undergraduate
School Of Business, graduating in 1965. At Northwestern, I was class
president for two
years, and I served in the Student Senate for three years, one of which
was under the presidency of Richard Gephardt, former Minority Leader of
the U.S. House of Representatives, whose example I try to follow in
politics.
"After graduation, I wrote newspaper advertising sales presentations for
the
Chicago Tribune
and the
Washington
Evening Star,
ending in 1973 when I was
divorced, quit my job, and started driving a taxicab in the Washington,
DC area.
"In 1995 I fully accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Saviour,
holding nothing back from Him, and in
1996 I started on the Internet with a website at Patriot.net, which I have
kept since then. Also in 1996, I stopped driving a taxicab and went to
work as night foreman of the repair shop at the same taxicab company I
had been driving for, and I remained at that job until mid-July, 2005,
when I resigned, to spend full time on my Internet work.
"At present, I write and
maintain various websites, including
LoveAllPeople.org,
InternetChurchOfChrist.org,
BillMcGinnisAutomotive.com,
and most recently
CivicAmerican.com,
AmericanDemocrat.net, and
Text-To-Speech.org.
I also am available to provide
recordings of my voice for selected worthy projects at
professional voice.
"I love to write op-ed items,
and I do so from a Progressive, Christian Pragmatist point of
view.
