Don’t Tell My Friends, But… is a seriesin which we asked Times columnistswhateveryone else is wrong about. The two concepts are so distinct within Christianity that they have different names — orthodoxy (right belief) and orthopraxy (right conduct). Right conduct should flow from right belief. The person who prioritizes orthodoxy says, “Hear my voice.” The person who prioritizes orthopraxy says, “Watch my life,” and the competing emphases can play out in concrete political ways. By contrast, the person who prioritizes orthopraxy has the opposite inclination.

For most of his four-plus decades in Hollywood, Thomas R. Moore has worked as a picture editor on network television shows. When the episode was done, he would receive another episode’s worth of footage, and so on, until he and two other editors worked through the TV season. This model, which typically pays picture editors $125,000 to $200,000 a year, has mostly survived the shorter seasons of the streaming era, because editors can work on more than one show in a year. But with the advent of artificial intelligence, Mr. Moore fears that the job will soon be hollowed out. “We’ll become electronic gig workers.”
