I guess that depends on who's God you are speaking of. I believe that the Romans would beg to differ. Cupid is still seen today very much as a symbol of romantic love. He has retained his reverence through the Christian holiday St Valentines Day, which ironically is a rip off of an ancient Roman holiday Lupercalia. Everything old is new again.

First time I heard this. But evidently Love is a big priority on God's list because He commands it for Himself and for Humans.
I Cr 13;8a

1 john 4:16
God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. 17In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment, because in this world we are like him.
