I have noticed something about the Christian threads on SI that bothers me a little. Perhaps you can shed some light on this issue and put my mind at ease.

Is one of the purposes of the Christian threads on SI to create a secret society of stealth Christians who are kept aloft from those they claim to minister to?

I found it curious that none of the creators of Christian threads on SI chose to list an E-mail by which they may be reached. In addition many of the most avid posters to these threads chose not to list an E-mail either.

How can one minister if one cannot be reached? Are we afraid that someone might find out who we are? Do we not want to be bothered by E-mails? Or are we posting for our own edification?

Gal 2:12

Before certain men came from James, he (Peter) used to eat with the Gentiles. But when they arrived, he began to draw back and separate himself from the Gentiles because he was afraid of those who belonged to the circumcision group.

John 12:42

Yet at the same time many even among the leaders believed in him. But because of the Parisees they would not confess their faith for fear they would be put out of the synagogue.

John 19:38

Later, Joseph of Arimathea asked Pilate for the body of Jesus. Now Joseph was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly because he feared the Jews.
