"Are you serious?" This is a very common question posed to those who have achieved Duck-consciousness.

This may stem from assumptions that religion must be boring or stable to be real. The Duck is neither boring nor stable; indeed, It is capable of of flight at a moment's notice.

Duckists are very often filled with Joy and Laughter. This comes from the Duck-Mind. Whether we are laughing or serious, we are still Ducky.

In this sense, it is irrelevant whether we are serious or joking. We have the Duck, and that is the Truth that Matters. If you take the Duck seriously, then It is serious. If you take the Duck as a joke, It is a joke. It remains the Duck.

It is in this sense, and only this sense, that the Duck is stable; while the Duck may follow certain patterns, there is always the random wind, the changing nature of the water; even land is in a constant state of flux. But the Duck, in any of its permutations, is still the Duck. A Quack is still a Quack. As time goes by.

Yes, the Duck is impermanent, but without the Duck, the survival of the human race for more than a century or so is unthinkable. The Duck is one of the keys to human survival--this, but of course, the leek, too, and one cannot ignore the orange... the orange... the orange....

The Duck Within must be capable of laughter. Laughter makes us Ducky. Seriousness makes us Ducky, too, but in a different way.

One cannot assume that something that makes us laugh is not true. Comedians make us laugh sometimes, but no one is seriously challenging their existence--just whether they are funny or not.

Neither can we assume that what makes us laugh is true. But if a religion doesn't have the power to make us laugh, what power does it have? If the truth is never funny, why would anyone want to discover the truth?

I try not to take life too seriously because "no one gets out alive." I think it's much more fun to be funny and light-hearted. People who are always serious are NOT fun! There's an appropriate time to be serious but not ALL the time.

Sometimes I can be a very serious person. To the point where I don't know how to laugh at my own flaws or mistakes. I take everything personally. That's not good!

For everything, there is always a time and a place! if you need to be serious then be serious, like for work. but if you're in a party, there is no sense in being a pooper, go wild and party, drink gin and tequilla and feel nirvana. Life is ****! if you are always serious, you will later realize that your life was no fun, seriously safe but still no fun!

Nope, I'm hardly ever serious.. I'm a mother with 2 demon children.. there's no room for seriousness there. Life is too short to be serious.
