I'm sorry, this post will be long; I don't have the time or energy to trim and edit tonight, but I just had to react.

I'll summarize my post in bullet points:

• The world is complex, and many (If not most) ethical questions are subjective and inherently gray -- to both Christians and non-believers.
• The desire for love is universal.
• A rough guideline for ethics is somewhat obvious from our experience and inherent human nature.
