tiponeill:

agape may be encouraged (especially among fellow christians) the higher priority by far is faith.

I must strongly demur. 1Cr. 13:13 "So faith, hope, love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love."

Nano has no scriptural basis for his bile and no justification for his vitriol. Far from defending the church, his clear lack of love brings the church into disrepute. Shame on him.
