(1) Many paths.
(2) Some fear love itself. Some fear the vulnerability of love.

That depends on what type of love you speak of. Romantic love? Love of friends? Family? Inanimate objects? Pets? etc.
I suppose, one way or another, there are many "paths" to love.
Why condemn any "path" that leads to an understanding of love?
-Because not all understandings of love are correct
-Because the ends do not justify the means; the road to hell is paved with good intentions
We're talking about the same love right? Because you seem to capitalize it on purpose.

There are two: Judaism and Noahidism.
We condemn other paths because "love" isn't the ultimate goal -- which is serving G-d. Besides that, I doubt whether a false religion will ultimately lead one to true, or proper love.

I believe that truth and love are synonymous and anyone who honestly seeks love, will find it....So whatever path you are on, if you are seeking, you will head toward love....
The proud ones who think that they are the ONLY way, are not seeking because they think that they have already found truth; they "know" that they are right....Their path does not lead to love...we can see that by their fruits.

All I know is, is that there are many valid paths to take. But any religion that claims to be the only way, isnt a way.

The path to love is one that people tend to over look. ie everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die. Love is the highest degree of understanding with a bond that cannot be broken. Now ask yourself; do you Truly love? peace

There are more paths to love then there are forms of love.

There is truth and there is deception, Jesus said I am the way the truth and the life, no man comes to the Father but by me. That statement offends many, but it is an absolute for all Christians. There is one God, one Heaven and is it surprising there is one way in.

Understanding Love?
Maybe if I'd just learn how to understand women, I'd understand love.
Maybe?

Many- that's why there are so many doors on Baha'i temples because we all come from our own path.
