I have a whole online persona, and live much of my life online. This is NOT that.
People who meet me – the other me – universally remark that who I am online is exactly who I am in person. People who know me from the Internet tend to know me just as well as people who met me in meatspace. Most of THEM seem to interact with me just as though we had known each other IRL as long as we have online. It's a bit creepy actually.
BUT, if I told any of them that I doubted my faith, they would look at me like I had suddenly grown a second head. I am a person of outspoken opinions, and I've been outspoken about them for decades. Not knowing my opinion on a subject usually only happens if we don't have a language in common.
So, here am I, live-blogging my struggle with faith. Only not really being open about who this "I" person is.
Who knows, maybe it works better this way. Better or no, this is how it has to be, for the time being at least.
