In many respects, romantic love resembles a kind of religion. Like faith, love is regarded as an expression of profound, unique, and morally pure attitudes. Both religion and love are making an impressive comeback in modern society leading to a rise in belief in the prevalence of sin and increase in infidelity.
this makes absoloute sense
many crimes happen in the name of love, like you said, people attach high values to love and thus violate other values. good article
Does this mean that if one
Does this mean that if one is Christian in their heart, then they are free to outwardly invest themselves in the traditions, ceremonies and studies of other religions without changing the fact that they are still Christian?
Rational Love
I agree with this article. It does seem that those who claim to have found love but also cheat, rationalize that the love in their partner outweighs the need to come clean with their partner about cheating. Which in my opinion is selfish, but I understand what goes on in the cheaters head - They know that if they were to come clean, chances are they lose that true love they think they found, once that thought enters into the mind then the thought of never finding love again permeates even further, at that point the individual rationalizes that they will just not make the mistake again (even if this is the 3rd time they made the mistake) and conceal the information from their true love to ensure a love is not lost.
