During all those meetings in the Leipzig church and the events that led up to the fall of the wall, it is most unlikely that Pastor Führer would ever have been anonymous or called himself 'P O'Neill'.
No doubt the Stasi operatives were anonymous with codenames and hidden identities.
There is a profound sadness and emptiness about people, who hide behind anonymity. There is a hopelessness about it.
Why does it happen so often within church organisations?
