Me and my partner have been rocked by the "Christian theology is an attempt to find places where the Sermon on the Mount doesn’t apply" quote you shared the other day. It's come up so often in conversation both irl and online. However, I've been trying to find this quote to no avail. You wouldn't be willing to take a second pass and see if you can find it, would you? Please?
The exact quote is way better than my paraphrase, unsurprisingly:
"In my most cynical moments, I sometimes think that the whole structure of Christian theology seems like an elaborate ruse to escape the unambiguous obligations set forth in the Sermon on the Mount."
