Bei der Entscheidung unter theologischen Ansichten sollte man eine Art Konsequentialist sein: Die Wahl einer theologischen Position gegenüber einer anderen sollte, wenn nicht tatsächlich festgelegt, zumindest stark davon abhängig gemacht werden, dass sie ein besseres ethisches Ergebnis als die Alternativen impliziert.
