Talk:Love of God

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I cant help but notice that this page only centers on the christian god, just like all other religious things written by Americans.

THIS JUST IN: CHRISTIANITY IS NOT THE ONLY RELIGION TO HAVE EVER EXISTED IN HUMAN HISTORY! BREAKING NEWS!

Despite my tone in this note, I fully support NPOV in all things on this site. This page needs to speak of a generic, unnamed deity, in order to maintain a NPOV.

Full agreement here, but it should also be noted that "theophilia" does not mean "love of god" in the sense of divine love, love from God, but rather the act of people loving God and the sentiment that God is worthy of love. This should be fixed, but in general this page needs a lot of work. Craig zimmerman (talk) 19:02, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah. I'm an Anglo-Saxon Heathen, and naturally we honor all of the gods, not just centering on one... If anything, from my point of view, the page ought to be "Love of Frigga," since she's the one who provides divine love. In any case, yeah, it needs reworking into a more encyclopedic page, which would either establish this concept to one specific set of beliefs, or if it is to be a broad topic, then it needs to be free from a specific set of beliefs. —Ƿōdenhelm (talk) 00:25, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

"is a central notion in monotheistic personal conceptions of God." I can deal with this better. It clarifies which specific sect of belief it belongs to. —Ƿōdenhelm (talk) 04:54, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
