Consensual sex, actually, with a variety of people, when there is a strong power differential...

as there is when you're a famous man that has the ability to attract women that I had at that time, I think involves exploitation.

I think it is exploitative.

I recognise that my sexual conduct in the past was selfish and I did not apply enough consideration, barely any, I suppose, really, to how that sex was affecting other people.

Amen.

Thank you.

Boy, that is the prayer, isn't it?

Not to look at people as someone who can do something for you.

So you were just reading me, because I want to talk about your book and I want to talk about your journey as a Christian, and we will, but I just can't resist this.

You were just reading me from Daniel in your marginalia-filled Bible from Daniel 11, and I was just so struck by it.

I took a picture of it and sent it to like 20 people.

Can you read the passage that you just read me?

Ripped from the headlines.

That was just so striking to me.

Shocking, actually.

I've read it.

I completely missed that.

It hits differently right now.

How often do you read the Bible?

Not to me.
