With this writing my post count becomes 3,115. That's a lot of posts, not near as many as some, but enough to insure that a google search of my name will quickly return more than a casual view into my identity and convictions. My blog sites add to the impossibility that I can hide under a bushel.
Please remember that the PB is NOT an obscure corner of the internet. We have thousands of info stealing 'spiders' each day but also real human beings who read with interest who and what is written here. Senior and associate pastors, employers, seminary staff, doctors and professors, publishers, relatives all will be reading these posts at one time or another.
Also remember that there are forums that can be seen by members only and those viewable by anyone passing through - please plan your post according. Our Lords warning from Luke 12 may have an application to us on this point - |

Any particular reason you're bringing this up? Did something happen to you?
I'm just glad that the quality humor I provide can eventually make its way across the internet!
I always kind of wondered why we pick an "identity" since everyone knows our real names, anyway...
