Hi Tad,

We might be at an impasse here. Perhaps it is futile to continue the conversation as is. We seem to be rehashing old arguments. I suggest that we take the next step in our dialogue, one which you have already suggested. Let us leave behind for now our personal accounts and instead discuss love from established theological and anthropological perspectives. I will try and contribute the former perspective and you are in a good position to provide the latter, your so-called ethnology of love. I look forward to reading your different cultural accounts of love! I will dig out my old seminary notes and also look through my library for the theology of love. What do you say?
