Twitter, among other things, provides and opportunity to say whatever you want to say to a lot of people before actually haven’t think about what you’re saying.
This is a great thing if you’re a seasoned veteran in the spiritual discipline of self control. The problem is that most people aren’t as “godly” in this area as they’d like to admit.
I have really enjoyed a recent personal trend where I’m beginning to think a lot more clearly about what I want to tweet and what I really shouldn’t. It’s not “Wow, I need to tweet this!” and instead it’s “Wow, I’ll just keep this to myself.”
Wouldn’t it be great if there was some spiritual barometer or spiritual CAPTCHA that would ban people if they didn’t meet the spiritual requirements? What exactly would that look like?
I’m just kidding, btw. That would be a terrible idea…
