One point that I'd like to bring up is, to me you are just a poster and I won't treat you any better or worse than I would the next poster just because you are minister. To me here, since you aren't my pastor, we are on even fields.
I'm sure some will not agree with this, but it's the way I feel.
I feel that way as well, even though I've met PP in real life, and just like others on this forum, if I were to meet them, there would be an obvious respect for them as ministry, but here, it's just the net.

My post above mentions being 'tainted' but has no reflection on anything PP says in this thread nor anywhere on this forum. I just now read this, and thought I should explain myself further. I was merely answering Renda's post as she wrote it without reading into it.

Are you "tainted" or "sainted" from posting here?!?

Been thinking about that a lot lately. This mode of communication is very dangerous. Inflection, tone and expression is lost here.
I have taken around three weeks off over the last two months. Thinking about extending it more and more and retiring the Pastor Poster nick permanently. Change is good.
Renda, I've had people comment on my posts from here that I hadn't even revealed my real id too. I guess word gets around. Not that I'm ashamed or anything, I just really valued some anonymity ya know?
For the record, I have never told anyone on this forum who you are, nor have I told anyone in real life that you post on this forum.
Not that you were accusing me, but I just wanted to clarify that to you in case you had any doubts. I keep my word, especially when it comes to confidential matters.

I want to add that you haven't been too careful about your location, and anyone who knows the area you fish in can probably guess who you are quite easily.
