I thought I had made that clear, perhaps not.

Once again; you failed to answered the question of WHY you do it.

I am NOT asking you to 'reveal' any of your precious secrets; just the justification for keeping them secret.

Is THAT a big SACRED thing you cannot reveal as well??

This is actually very simple, If I come to you in confidence, and say:

"You have to swear to me you not tell any one what I am going to say..." IF you agree, so you can hear what secret I am going to impart, you are bound, or a liar one of the two.

Why would you keep it secret? Because you are honest.

IF what you are being told is supposed to be kept form someone else like a birthday party's time, or keys and tokens needed to return to God, then you keep them sacred, secret if you don't believe the commitment was to God, but you "keep" to your self that which you covenanted to, or you are a liar.

It's that simple.

Simply put, our justification is that we gave our word.
