I especially enjoyed the testimonies from various Christians in EA; I fit the “generally godless” descriptor one person used, but I am glad to hear of Christians finding convergence between EA ideas and their own charitable commitments.
This relates to a thing I’ve long wondered, which is whether there ought to be a version of the GWWC pledge that fits better with zakat, i.e. committing 2.5% of one’s surplus wealth to the most effective causes, instead of 10% of income (which fits better with Jewish ma’aser ksafim / Christian tithing traditions).
