Mm.

It's, it's not clear that you can persuade someone quite very easily of your theory of love 'cause it's all very abstract.
53:42
And so I'm thinking, yeah, probably there's just no reason for a non-Christian to be persuaded, uh, a non-Christian like me.
53:48
And so, uh, I think that's an important point 'cause the incarnation argument was supposed to work for non-Christians, and I think this one doesn't, or it can't, like in principle.
53:56
Uh, a-and so on the, on the disposition account of love, yeah, so I, I, I don't say that, um-It's a consensus that love is, is a disposition of a certain type.
54:05
I, I, I do say at least on, on the reliable testimony of a, a philosopher of love who I've talked to, who I've reason to think has read nearly everything in the contemporary analytic philosophical literature on love, Jack Miller, grad student at Oxford, a great guy, um, the, this, uh, the, the view that love is an act of the will is a minority position.
54:25
So i-it could be that, you know, I'm giving a minority position and Josh is.

But I wonder, do you have a similar objection that if we follow this logic, then, you know, where does the buck stop? A kind of an argument that, uh, why does it have to be three? If we've, if we've started going, uh, why do we stop at three?
