Re: Blessings to all
Shocking though it may be, I'm going to side with Dr. Vaughn and AB this time. I understand that we all want to know for SURE if he's a DR., but I feel that this forum is overstepping boundaries by making a member provide documentation to prevent termination of membership.
Let's not forget what this is: It's an online internet forum created for discussion purposes, and MANY people have anonymous usernames for the protection of their true identity. It doesn't matter if I share everything except my social security number--I STILL retain the right to protect whatever information I wish to protect.
I would take the same tact if someone questioned whether I was ACTUALLY a music director at our church. There is no WAY I would provide proof, even though it would be easy to do, simply because no one here has the right to demand it.
I understand that you want Dr. V to back up his claims, but I really don't think it is the right of anyone on this forum, including admin, to force him to do so. I don't think anyone should have even picked up the phone or written an email to "check" his story.
I think this is very Gestapo.
