Unethical Love

"Books follow morals, and not morals books. " ~ Theophile Gautier

Love is a gift from God.

We won’t argue that. Love is gorgeous and tempting and ticklish here – in your tummy -- and sweetly there -- on your lips.

But sometimes, love comes in forms that – how do I say this – defies social and ethical norms. Sometimes love calls us to follow the kind of whims can be considered sinful. Wrong. Or just down right gross.

For instance, I love tattoos. I have gay and lesbian friends. And we’ve all heard of stories about married men and women who fall into passionate extramarital affairs.

And end up so miserable.

So, if love is a gift from God, why did He have to sprinkle it on things and people we’re not allowed to have?
