A rather....interesting.....rant on why Blogs are Evil and should not be done by "good Christian youth", but rather only by experienced professionals for Business (and I presume Church) purposes only:

Blogs – and God’s Youth (Restored Church of God)

"Should teenagers and others in the Church express themselves to the world through blogs? Because of the obvious dangers; the clear biblical principles that apply; the fact that it gives one a voice; that it is almost always idle words; that teens often do not think before they do; that it is acting out of boredom; and it is filled with appearances of evil—blogging is simply not to be done in the Church. It should be clear that it is unnecessary and in fact dangerous on many levels.

Let me emphasize that no one—including adults—should have a blog or personal website (unless it is for legitimate business purposes). 

When this policy, now being instituted, was discussed with Mr. Pack and other Headquarters ministers, there was not a shadow of doubt in anyone’s mind that blogs are something youth should not be doing in any way."

Because writing things down might make people think, and The Church does not want their flocks to question Their (interpretation of) Writ.
