WOTM: Love
I haven't really talked about this subject much. And don't worry — this is not a personal video where I talk about my own struggles (many and great they are — #YodoSpeak).
Love is actually one of the things which most motivates me — the fact that Jews and Christians have the absolute worst example of love guiding them. I don't want to say too much more. It's all there in the video. Take a look! And enjoy!!! B

Love? I love bacon (and we all love Brian) 😉
Love others as yourself is a pretty low bar. If Christianity wanted to get ahead of other religions, Jesus should have said treat others better than you expected to be treated yourself. You know what else that is a problem with the Golden Rule and Christianity? Christianity teaches that we are all sinners and deserve eternal punishment. I really don’t want to be treated in the same manner as someone who thinks they deserve eternal punishment.
What a great point!!!
Agree with Mr Larsen. If you can’t even imagine walking in another’s shoes, no amount of ‘love’ will suffice or sustain an effort. Of course, there is no love like self-love. The xtians and jews have an excess of that, imho. There are no more insidious examples of that than the treatment of Palestinians at the hands of the descendants of the recipients of the exact same treatment 80+ years ago. How anyone can not see the absolute hypocrisy of this horror, due entirely to religious belief and “self-love” is beyond me.
After decades in this life, I've come to suspect that I'd gladly set aside 'love' if all people would simply feel… 'empathy'!
Good point. Empathy and understanding (which requires a bit more work).
Jehovah's witless 🤣
