it keeps no record of wrongs

[vernal_vices]

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres

that is a good verse

My favorite, favorite bible passage.

What made you feel this way to quote such a strong and true passage?

[vernal_vices]

I had to re-examine the way I felt toward a person, and in turn had to re-examine my ideas of what love is and what it is not.

And yes, I agree it is strong. It's strong enough to make an atheist like me respect the bible

I've always loved those verses. It's one of the few things that helped me make sense of being gay and Catholic.

They're easily my favorite in the whole book. I'm glad you like them, too

it's a shame there's so much bullshit in that book. it really makes the good parts look bad sometimes.

Amen, brother. The reason I posted this was because of how much its poignancy caught me off-guard.
