Angelo Scola"Love is one. Eros and agape cannot be set against each other."
"Love is one. Eros and agape cannot be set against each other."
“God is charity, then, because the world is dear to him. It represents, in some respect, a goodness and beauty that God himself ‘desires.’”
“Benedict’s particular construal of the eros-agape relationship is uniquely suited to provide a Christian response to secularism that neither preserves Christian distinctiveness at the cost of its worldly mission, nor emphasizes the Church’s worldly mission at the expense of its identity as Christian.”
