Good detective work. I was also >>9814887, >>9815941, >>9816212, and >>9815496.

>I see a lot of conjecture, speculation, assertion, and bloviation, but no evidence.

I hope you actually read the thread. In it, I cited primary sources: Scripture (John, 1Cor, Matthew, etc), specific Platonic dialogues (Phadrus, Symposium), specific Platonic ideas (the form of the good as first principle and analogous to the virtues embodied by Christ), the neoplatonist Plotinus (Enneads), and Augustine. Whether you considered those sources and found my interpretation incontrovertible or not is on you. I can't make you understand.

You, and others, have simply hand-waved it all away. That's okay, I'm not out to convince you. I'm only defending a very well established fact (that Christianity inherited its philosophy of love from heretical Hellenic Jews), and providing my personal reasoning for it.
