I just happened on your site. I've been blogging for a little over a year. Last week, a church office worker took my anonymous blog public by distributing posts all over the church. This led me to resigning my membership.

No, there's good piety, and there's bad pietism.

Without meddling in the issues that you and the Rev. McCain seem to be having, I'd take issue with the assertion that "you cannot judge a person by his blog," that which you term a blogging fundamental. But that's not right, is it? We certainly can. And we certainly do. Each of us, when reading another's scribblings assess them and make
