People seem to think that I'm "hiding" or making some sort of statement with my mask. I'm not, really. I just have a mask on because my name, Girl Wonder, is meant to be a superhero name, and superheros wear masks, so... there you go.
To prove I am not hiding, here are a couple pictures of me sans mask. Happy now?

Oh, and to keep this on topic... um... what do masks symbolize in your religion?

Good transition to a topic question.
I like the mask, but I think you need a cape.
As for the Mask in religion, I have always been taught that we all wear masks. The mask basically represents what mood we are in. ie...Are we helpful, or standing in someones way at a particular time?

I'm a little blue dot in Monument Valley. I think that's a lot more mysterious than any ol' mask.
But truthfully, masks do have some psychological impact - the obscuring of a face probably interferes with basic social psychology processes.
But, don't people realize that pretty much ANY avatar is a mask?

Aha! Now we know who that masked girl is...lol.
By the way, I like your avatar with your mask on, because it does give you a unique personality that way. :) I had pictured you as a blonde (your hair is not real evident in your typical avatar).
But to answer your question...in the Bible I could not find a reference for a mask, but facial coverings were used either as
1) A way to hide shame, such as an unclean face or a prostitute
2) A veil used by a maiden (unmarried virgin). It all depended on the time frame and cultural custom here.

Masks symbolize disguising the true personality. Pictures 1-3 were nice, but picture 4 unmasks you. Jesus loves you.

No, I know it was for fun. I don't have a religion. masks don't symbolizes anything for me except in comics books & characters. Continue to have fun.

Nothing. But your mask and super hero image speaks one phrase in the in Bible.
"When thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right .
Like your avatar.

The mask and the red hair. I did not look at the other photos, I like the look you have. Atheist.
