Focus on love and the awe of God, not lesser things

[whirlingmerc]

Corinthians says 'if I ..." sell all I have, give my body to be burned, know mysteries... but have not love it profits me not. It is no surprise the best blessings in Old and New Testament are focused on the love of God... which spills over to love of man... don't settle for less

Major points about loves, both strong and cold, close the Old Testame…

All the major world religions' doctrines contain statements on the nature of higher love. To me love is the cause of the universe and the goal of creation.

Yeah well... Definition of terms I guess. Anyway, my take: We are one. Awareness of that we call love.

Its ok to love God, but you need a safe base, which is where wisdom and social ethics come into play.
