“How am I to trust the wisdom of your king
who sends you with this message
if he hides his real name behind a false one?”
He went on further in his discourse by saying,
“Does your king lack courage.
Does he not have the backbone of a man
or is he really a woman
hiding behind a man’s name
who claims to be a king?”
The king then had his soldiers remove
the servant from his presence.
The servant’s head was cut off
before the sun set upon that day.
Each day I am constantly amazed
by the many web sites and forum boards
that carry postings of individuals
who use cover names out of fear
instead of their own real names.
How can one take any of these postings seriously
when the posters hide behind a mask?
For all we know
it can be a simple program on a computer
somewhere generating all these postings
across the net in an attempt
to control public opinion.
