It really isn't an attempt to shield ourselves from one another, at least not primarily...
It is first and foremost the state (i.e. those gangs of thugs calling themselves "governments" and claiming to have some mystical right to rule us by force whether or not we are in agreement, to rob us "for the common good" and to inflate the "money" they demand we use, and to take away our homes if we don't pay tribute, to insert themselves into the middle and demand a portion of every private transaction....) THOSE are the miscreants we need privacy from...
You, my Dear, I would gladly invite into my home and I would be happy were you to know my true name...🙏😁💜🫂😆 Why? Because I know you by your words and actions here on nostr. I know you to be a loving person of good will to all others of good will...
But sometimes, even in the best of company, identifying information can accidentally slip out...
This is why my daily prayer is responsive to what my Lord and King Jesus directs me:
Hallowed be Thy name...
Why? Because honor 4 honor, value for value...
Implemented be Thy Kingdom...
Why? Because Jesus as our Creator-God not only has the absolute right to govern us, he actually *loves* us and truly has our best interests in mind.
Executed be Thy will, on Earth as in the heavens...
Why? Because when I choose actions that align with the moral guidance Jesus provides me, I know I am serving, protecting, and blessing all mankind.
