If a person knows whose interpretation of Scripture is authoritative, why hide it from others (especially those wanting to know whose interpretation is authoritative)? Why deprive them of knowledge of the interpretive authority? But if a person doesn't know whose interpretation is authoritative, why hide that from others? Why hide from others that all of one's theological claims have been made while in ignorance/uncertainty about the identity of the interpretive authority? Either way, hiding one's answer to this question does not make any sense.

Is there an ignore feature that I am not aware of? I prefer not to receive pings from a poster who persistently tries to make things personal.
