(April 27, 2012 at 2:26 pm)ChadWooters Wrote: Within a theological context the “God is Love” quote refers to an essential attribute. That attribute includes the actions of God that draw all things toward Him. As such love goes beyond both the warm and tender fondness He has for all things and the kindness and mercy He extends to His creation.

What is the reason to suppose a "god" should exist to possess "fondness" for all things, besides a flippant assertion that he:
1. Exist
2. and is fond?
