For Christians with strong moral commitments, an “it depends” can feel like the sort of wishy-washy ethic that God threatens to spit out in Revelation 3:15-16.  Setting aside whether this is a responsible reading of the relevant passage, it’s a factor that gave me some trepidation when In All Things asked me…
