RE: Theists: Why do you love God?

Quote:Well, there are Gods to be loved, and Gods to be feared

I can understand a person loving an infinitely compassionate,and benevolent god.Who wouldn't?

I can also understand somebody being terrified of a dead cunt like YHWH, and doing ANYTHING he demands to keep him placated. But LOVE him? Why? Stockholm syndrome?The pathology where the victim loves his abuser?
