Hi FallentoReason and thank you for that, it summarized the point in a such an elegant way
On a side note, I think it did not come out of nowhere. With Christianity being originally a cult for slaves, this particular set of values fits a slave perfectly.I mean a slave was not supposed to have his own mind about things or question the master's words - hence the blind Faith.
A slave was not supposed to act on his own, have initiative or show disobedience - hence the apathy and naive Hope.
A slave was not supposed to follow his own feelings, just be obsessively loyal to his master and even sacrifice himself - hence the obsession of Love
