On a personally level, its a disgusting word to me, and I feel nothing but anger and suspicion the moment someone says it to me. — XanderTheGrey
But of course, as this is thematic with your ongoing agenda to advocate some sort of sociopathic ideology/religion you've come upon. How much longer must we wait before your big reveal where you set out the bases of your brand of Satanism?
Unconditional love is a stupid and dangerous ideal, with no historical basis, coined by Erich Fromm in the 1950s.
It's a license to do whatever the fuck you want, and demand forgiveness or the other is deficient in some way. It's also impossible. You don't get to chose who or what you love, or why you love them. Forcing yourself because you think you ought to, and torturing yourself for not meeting an impossible ideal is fun and all, though. — Wosret
Love to me is a lazy and pointless word, everyone has their own definitions of it. Anyone can use the word love, its the easiest thing in the world to say. Describing prescisly how you feel about someone in your own terms is a much greater indicator. I never borhered with the claim. I take the time to explaim exactly how I feel. — XanderTheGrey
How does it exist? How could it not give license? Your love is not to be earned, or maintained but expected. It isn't like a grace that you can freely give, as that suggests considerations and circumstances. Unconditional love means always that, so the complete opposite of freely given. — Wosret
Unconditional love is not something you ask for or demand, it's something you give. All the motivation comes from the giver, none from the receiver. — T Clark
AmenAnd yes, the unconditional part is bullshit, never can happen, is impossible for a sane person. — Sir2u
