But why does "Fr. Moderator" hide behind a pseudonym? Why does he keep his background a secret? If he truly is a validly ordained priest, he should have no problem making that information known.

Basically, if he wishes to lambaste every aspect of the "Novus Ordo" Church, the least he can do is be forthright about who he is.

I am.

Again, I dont see his true identity as a serious issue. I am much more interested in what he says and why. That is what really counts. For that matter, I could be a priest......but you would never know one way or another, now would you? All that really matter is the substance of what I have to say - whether or not you agreee with it.

Perhaps, like other writers who use a pseudonym, he uses anonymity to have the freedom to express himself, wheras he might not be so free to do so otherwise.

Personally, I find the use of a pen name to be quite useful.....and I use more then one (in other venues).
