"...there are only two difficult questions. One is sex. Sexuality has to do with intimacy and power; the Bible, so it seems to me, intends covenanted sex and not promiscuity or exploitation. The other hard question is money, for money is about freedom and control, and the Bible is for convenantal economics that are not promiscuous or exploitive. It strikes me as odd - but predictable - that conservatives, people who tend to stress evangelism, care a lot about covenantal sexuality but seem strangely naive about promiscuous, self-indulgent economics. Coversely liberals, who seem to care about social action, have some sense of covenantal economics but tend to mumble about sex."
