Understanding unconditional love

1 post in this topic

God's love for all things is infinite and completely unbiased. 

Let's use god's love for Leo as an example. What does it mean that god loves Leo unconditionally? It means that to god it doesn't matter if Leo is a horrible serial killer or an angel for example. So far so good.

But this is where it gets radical. When generating reality God doesn't take into consideration Leo's well being at all, because god's love is so total that it loves the reality where Leo is crucified and covered in feces as much as it loves the reality where Leo is wealthy and successful.

This means that god's love for people is not "good" or "positive" in the sense of human love. In the perspective of a human it is a completely heartless love.

God's love = infinite generosity, infinite kindness, infinite cruelty, infinite hatred, infinite everything. It is all qualities simultaneously.

And of course god is Leo. This is what god chose for itself. This is the result of infinite intelligence. No care for itself whatsoever. In fact, the very opposite of human love which is all about nurture and care.

This is how the only conscious being in existence decided to structure existence, where all things no matter how horrible hold equal weight,  are equally revered.

Another way to put it is that for survival and the finite forms, unconditional love is exactly the same as complete and utter indifference. To the finite forms, the universe is a cold and uncaring place.
