  "content": "Traditional believers get upset because I talk about Christianity in a utilitarian way, and non-believers get upset with me because I talk about Christianity at all.\n\nI boil it all down to utilitarianism: if something isn’t useful, it’s no good to me; if something is useful, I use it. For me, Christianity isn’t a dogma; it’s a moral theory. And that’s why Christianity today is more useful than ever, because it’s a moral code, and there’s no longer any morality in the world or leaders offering a guiding light to follow, but there’s still a book to read that at least offers you a vision of what’s right and what’s wrong.\n\nIf there are two books that can teach you how to live, one is the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius and the other is the New Testament.",
