Are You Writing Humorously or Seriously?
Both. It really depends on the blog post. Sometimes I mix them in together. For instance in my post Jobs I Would Hate to Hold the tone is humorous (at least thats the intent) but I am not dishonest about anything. I really would hate to have any of those jobs. In my post Is God a Republican or A Democrat? I am attempting to make a serious point with a mild bit of humor here and there. You should be able to tell in which vein I am writing. Though you will sometimes not know by looking at the title which vein I am writing in.
I believe Christians can be both serious about serious issues and have a fun time as well. Some people claiming to be Christians appear like they have been embalmed before their time (and no one says about them that they look good, the way they do when they normally look at a newly embalmed person.) In other words they look like a bunch of dead stiffs (unless they are really skinny in which they only look like one dead stiff). Anyway, their is nothing Christian about looking like you just stepped out of a coffin.
On the other hand, some younger Christians today don't appear to take much of anything seriously. They blather around like idiots without realizing there are serious issues in life. We don't want to be too frivolous (frivilus, frivilous, frivi...however this word is spelled) about the big issues of life (and many smaller ones as well).
Balance is the key to life in so many ways and I shall write more about balance in later works of literary genius (or regular posts, whichever happens to come out that day). A balanced Christian can seriously discuss issues and can also have fun as well. This blog helps me to do both.

You sure have started this blogging thing gung ho! It took me a while to catch up, but I'm glad to see you putting some thoughts into the ether. Hopefully, as I seem to share this goals with you, we can see Christians take steps to think through the issues of life a little more. I also like the idea of enjoying ourselves as we think.
Surely God is pleased as His people learn.
