I am truly a follower of Christ not trying to stir up anything. I was also hoping for anyone else who knew about this kind of stuff. I am actually protecting people by not giving names/dates and places. I have had years to wrestle with the right and wrong of this. I truly do see it as wrong all the way but some part of me wants to justify such actions so I don't cause a stir and feel so sad about it. I don't want to think bad of anyone especially those in the family of faith. Thanks for interacting with the post. I have been busy homeschooling my kiddos and helping my hubby with his college. So no abandoning going on.
As far as causing trouble, I get in trouble if I fight back by leaving messages for churches to keylog. That is how I discovered the practice. It began when I was a seminary student typing all my papers in unprotected Word documents. Part of the seminary program involved ways to make the church stronger or methods/programs and practices the church used that might be ineffective or inefficient. I began getting sermon feedback on some mighty familiar content. As a military spouse we move a lot. Two-three churches later and a Christian counseling degree program later, I began to noticing both my closed facebook group posts (Christian homeschooling groups) and my college papers were being commented on in sermons. Immaturely, I got angry and began leaving deliberate messages in my closed facebook posts and my college papers. This did not go over well.
Sermons got positively hostile. Even my husband started to notice and he was thought I was crazy for the longest time. Even my last post on this very sight was picked apart the following week in church using the same verses I used. Obviously, I could point to dates and recorded sermons but some of our local church leaders are amazing and I do not want that. So as much as they do not like me, I am still protecting them
. Anyway so my husband finally believed me. I can't tell you the relief. We are very brokenhearted and in between churches desperately waiting for our next move because moving churches here did not help. It only got worse. That is why I suspected churches are in some kind of circle doing this stuff. The Tulsa church ring helped me confirm what I thought might be going on. If this is considered an accusation, I apologize. And I accept all consequences both on earth and in heaven.
Sincerely in Christ,

Do you understand that "keylogger" refers to software installed on your personal computer and records every single keystroke you make, as well as every website you visit? It can see what you type in word and never publish.
Do you understand that it is legal to install a keylogger on your own personal computer but it is illegal to install on a computer owned by someone else?
Do you understand that simply knowing the content of the material you publish whether online or on college associated sites is not proof of having keylogger malware installed illegally on your computer?
DO you understand that you can check your computer for keyloggers?
Do you understand that all malware can be removed, by yourself, on your computer?
Have you checked your computer for a keylogger and have physical proof one has been installed by a third party?
Have you found proof that your church is the responsible party for the installation of this keylogger on your personal computer?
WHEN you showed this proof to the police what did they do? (It is a prosecutible crime after all)
What you post online is public, whether you post it inside a private group or not those people who are members of your group can see the content, as well as the content you publish publicly..
I am a member of a secret (not private but
secret which has stricter rules for privacy) Facebook group but anyone of its hundred or two hundred members knows my real name and has access to all the content I publish there. They can also go to my public Facebook page and see everything I publish publicly...
Those who I invite into the group may be freinds or know me outside of Facebook, so they will also know what I publish both privately and publicly as well as know all my freinds and family and acquaintances, and if they share what I have published with others, I certainly couldn't stop them. It's still "public" because a great many people can see and read it, and know who I am.
So if your posting content fairly well everywhere, and you end up hearing about it in a sermon, a "keylogger" isn't the only means by which a pastor can come across knowledge of what your saying, most especially if what your saying is anathema according to the church your in.... People will go to the pastor with questions, he may ask them where they heard such a thing and they will tell him it came from what
your teaching.
The more controversial your religion related content is, the more likely your pastor will hear of it - private or not.
But this isn't keylogging.. that's a specific malware installed on your private computer, and your accusations are that this malware has been installed on your private computer without your consent by those in your churches leadership.
hahaha..... All that you recounted has been seen frequently the last century, and testified to in many places/ posts/ news/ and so forth - usually not repeated much, as "they all" want it to just go away, if they even ever admit it... the news about sexual sins fills the airwaves and the internet some days, frequently, year after year.... even mainstream cannot be trusted unless tried, tested, as Scripture says to do with every message, every messenger. I don't know why others are or seem so unaware of this, not for any good true reason anyway...
