Our culture considers a person’s ability to speak their opinion not just a right but a kind of necessity. To not have an opinion is to be dull at best and irrelevant and transparent at worst. If a person chooses not to speak are they even still a person? In the digital age, maybe not.

The question is not whether we should speak or not speak, it's, have we cultivated the wisdom to even recognize we have the choice.

How do we read James' advice in the age of the internet? "Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry."
