Anonymity Be Praised!

A. Unabashed Pacifist:

Put more fuel on the embers of peace.

B. Unabashed Christian:

Holy One,

You fill me.
You fill the world.
You fill my life.
You fill every void.
You occupy every atom of the universe.
Yet some people can’t find you.
Fascinating.
Amen

C. Un-quoting Jesus:

“A red wine, Peter? Don’t you know it’s white wine with fish?”

[Hmm. Nope, He didn’t say this.]

D. Blog: In Praise of Anonymity

I can see that anonymity has some major benefits. Whoever points a finger of blame at or criticizes the anonymous makes a futile gesture. Anonymity carries no responsibility, no accountability, yet interestingly, “Anon.” is said to be the most-cited and celebrated writer ever. If you cannot be seen, those bent on destruction and power cannot single you out or take aim at you. The famous, in contrast, attract followers and detractors alike, much like dogs attract fleas or a carcass attracts maggots. Who needs any of that?
