Ok, I know a lot of people are wondering who is who! It's so easy to hide behind a name, and I'm not accusing anybody of it, but it's easy to, and you are not accountable for what you say! And I also know that a lot of you know each other! But if you are hiding behind your name, then I feel like that is somewhat cowardess. But I also respect that their is a right to privacy on here, but I think you ought to come outright and say who you are! And even put where you stand: as in conservative, moderate, or liberal. So I'll go first!

Thank God this is a forum where one is allowed to remain annonymous and its not being a coward because there are some who love to call pastors over nothing and being annonymous keeps those winners from being able to do so

Actually, I don't know that "a lot of people" are wondering who is who. I'm not...guess if people want to know who they are, they will tell me. And, since alot of posters here have been posting for awhile, I think most know who one another is. (Thats's Alabama lingo).
Me. I'm Rick from Alabama. And, I'm just a brother.

And I can testify to that fact as my Pastor was called a time or two:club You have to laugh at someone calling to tattle on a 50 year old woman. It is too late to have my parents whip me or my Pastor set me down. LOL.

Yet they tell me I can be friends with people that hate women preachers and say they are going to hell...So I will go to hell according to some because of my friend Sherri and to others I will go to hell because of my friend Jesus...I am between a rock and a hard place...lol...

Thats OK sister, there are some who would just love to get me in trouble for my viewpoints and tattle on me to my dad or brother, until they realize, my family knows all about me, and they love me anyway!!! It is very disappointing to them...
It is pretty sad when you find out people want to tattle on you and you are almost 40 years old, I thought I left that stuff behind in grade school! :bigbaby

why not give out your social security number, address, email address and phone number too. It's not cowardice it's wisdom especially for some here that have been harassed by others.
How can you respect someone's right to privacy on the one hand then accuse them of cowardice and say they should come right out and say who they are?

You know Prax, I convered my tracks when I said I felt it was cowardess if you HIDE BEHIND YOUR NAME!!! If you aren't then you have nothing to worry about, right Prax?

See? It really IS your accusation. You are accusing people of cowardice then saying it's not true then trying to accuse me of cowardice. Talk about a contradiction.

How asinine it would be for folks to share their personal info online? If you cant discuss your opinions with others without knowing their details....well, you have issues IMO
If you need to know who someone is, if you think their online anonimity is cowardice, you need to spend more time on your knees and in prayer readjusting your views on things.
If you have issues, start at home to correct them..leave the world at large alone.

I don't mind people knowing my name.
I don't go to a Oneness Pentecostal church and my pastor knows my background so don't bother trying to tattle on me for anything I say.
If someone wishes to remain anonymous here, I have no problem with that.
Some are from controlling (and maybe even abusive churches) and do not want their pastor knowing what they really think or that they might be associating (even online) with folks who are less than loyal, holy and completely in line with what their pastor allows them to do and think. Others may be afraid to express opinions if they thought their "friends" and "associates" would look at them as compromisers or "charismatics" if they express an original opinion that does not adhere to the "party line." Some are just paranoid of "Big Brother."
