Why Blog?

As I begin this venture in Blogging, immediately the question should be asked: Why?

Its a valid question. So many people today are throwing their ideas out there into cyberspace. It seems to be a pretty evident case of a fulfilling of scripture:

Ecclesiastes 12:12 - And further, by these, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh. (Underlined for Emphasis)

There is a lot of writing going on out there, and it really is wearying. There's so little of actual truth or real value being made out there.

Real truth is not a popular thing these days. Its largely not sensational, so it doesn't attract attention. It tells us that we need correction, so it makes people uncomfortable. It focuses on things that are contrary to what we want to think, most of the time, so it is easy to be distracted from.

Isaiah 59:14 - And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter. (Underlined for Emphasis)

 I want to blog because I want to try and put out some of the things of truth and value, as I see them. I want there to be someone that's stating what's right, so that's what I will attempt to do.

I am not doing this on my Facebook profile, though it will be linked to this, because I want what I put here to be on a more serious level than the everyday fluff that is on Facebook.

This blog will deal with a number of topics.

Primarily it will fall into the religious category, since that is the most important and foundational. It touches every aspect of life, so it deserves the emphasis.

I'll also be dealing with politics, current events, nature, science, and whatever else strikes my fancy at the time, and can be dealt with in a meaningful way.

I hope, for those of you that know me already (I doubt many others would pay attention to this), that you will see a new and deeper side of me. I want to be able to state loud and clearly what I believe and why I believe it.

I will welcome comments, as long as they are reasonable and thought-out. If anyone ever wants me to touch on a particular topic, I will see what I can do.

Edit:

Just to make it clear, there will be some lighthearted and less serious topics discussed, this should provide some good enjoyment, at least I hope so, but accomplish positive things as well.
