I, LCalpurniusPiso, am a historian and a professor of religion at a university in the United States. My primary field of research has been Muslim history, but I also have taught courses in other aspects of Muslim culture and civilization as well as in ancient classical civilization, including the ancient Near East, Greece, and Rome, in addition to religion and science, and theories of religion and secularism. Besides my mother tongue, which is English, I am fluent in spoken and written Arabic and have speaking and reading ability in French, as well as reading ability in Persian, Latin, and Italian, with some reading ability as well in German, Spanish, Norwegian, Hebrew, and classical Greek. I would like to contribute more to Wikipedia, but my work does not really provide me with enough time to do much. Still, I find many of the disputes quite interesting and believe that it is worthwhile to try to improve the level of discourse in Wikipedia further. I believe in the ability of humans to get closer to a real appreciation of the past through historical study.
The reference to LCalpurniusPiso is to a Roman senator who lived from 49 BCE to 32 CE and according to the Roman historian Tacitus never introduced a sycophantic proposal in the Roman Senate.
