- What do you think love means? Most christians think that love DOES NOT mean
- letting someone do whatever they want and supporting it.
-
- A statistical assertion. Any empirical backup? And just because
- everyone wants to stick their nose in everybody else's bedroom (:-/),
- does that make it right?
-
- To us (if I may be so bold as to speak for such a large group) it
- means supporting the idea that people do what is best for them.
- Now I admit that it is hard to figure out what is best for people,
- but LOVE does not mean supporting people doing whatever they want.
-
- It also doesn't mean trying to be everyone's parents. I have all I
- need, thanks. And you *can* support a person without agreeing that
- what they do is advisable.
