I would like just a few moments of your time to speak about RastaPope.
I feel that I am qualified to put forth my opinion because I have been speaking with him on a nearly daily basis for about four months. I consider him a close friend, despite the constraint of physical distance the internet imposes. I have also read the entirety of his post history-- partly because I was initially curious about his modus operandi, but mostly because I enjoy the hell out of him. I have been privileged to speak with him at length outside the context of Literotica, and I have gotten to know him fairly well. I think very highly of him, and consider him to be a person of integrity and firm ethics.
A rumor is circulating that he is Hanns. I am certain that he is not. I consider myself a very adept reader; I use a few modes of interpretive analysis simultaneously (and reflexively) to evaluate every single thing I read. I can assert that RastaPope is not Hanns based on comparative analysis (if you want the logical approach), but my instinct tells me just as strongly that he is not.
And good grief. Why the fuck does it matter who is who? I think that a lot of people really get off on the periodic mini witch-hunts of Lit. We are all adults here-- if a person says something you don't like, you can either ignore it and get over it or fight it out. But this childish urge to pull the mask off of the villian at the end of a Scooby Doo episode is so pointless. Why does it matter so much? Does it make you feel good to make baseless accusations?
