Christian Liberals & Progressive People of Faith

Agape (Agapēseis) is different than self-interest, though both may fall within the modern usage of the truncated word 'love.' However, it's clear that of the four classical loves ("agape", "eros", "storge" and "philia&quot , agape was the fulcrum (i.e., in the original Greek of Mark, the word was Agapēseis.)

In effect, the Randians are choosing an contextually inaccurate definition suiting their own social narrative in much the same way that one could inaccurately infer there's too much sound rather than too much space if we use the phrase "too much volume." Lacking context (in our case, the original Greek), either space or sound is valid; yet given context, one (self-interest, or my example, sound) becomes invalidated.
