Love under will. :-D
I can't think of better reasons to do things.

I love is given to merely fulfill the Law then it's worthless and totally meaningless. If Love is given Freely, with NO intent to have it returned to you. Given unconditionally without reservations, then it is the single most valuable thing we have to give, and NO amount of material goods can replace it. That is MY philosophy and I believe that is the outlook of ALL major (and minor) REligious philosophies of the Planet.

A. Crowley thinks so. My husband and I are both Pagan (Witchcraft with some Wicca incorporated into our tradition), but he prefers "Do what thou wilt is the whole of the law. Love is the Law. Love under Will," over the Wiccan Rede (shortest version) " 'An ye harm none, do as thout wilt."

Yes, and if it isn't, then it should be. Forget the Biblical quotes and look into your heart. If there is love, then there is hope, happiness, fulfilment, charity, all the wonderful feelings the heart filled with love can offer. A law is something laid down that must be followed. My heart determines what I do, and my heart says to love all life, therefor love is the law, at least for me.

YES!
10 spiritual laws were put forth, but when Jesus was tested by the Pharisees as to which was the greatest of these laws, Jesus brought the 10 down to 1.
10 = 1+0 = 1.
There is 1 spiritual law.
The essence of this law is truth.
Love of truth (also referred to as "the spirit of truth").

John 13:34-35...... Â I am giving YOU a new commandment, that YOU love one another; just as I have loved YOU, that YOU also love one another.
If everyone applies this one simple law the world would be a better place to live in.

Yes, that's why Bible uses Charity(Grace), not Love(Law),
when noting what never fails; For Love(Law) always fails:
Law: I will forget you & I will forsake you: Jeremiah 23:39
Grace: I'll never leave nor forsake you: Dt31;Jos1;Heb13
So we'll go with Grace(Charity) and not Law(Love).
Grace --> Mercy ---> Peace with you all. Amen.

The law was a way for God to show us our sin.
As God's new creation we actually want to obey His law - not because it gets us anything, but because of our love for Him. We still say with the Psalmist in his ageless words, "I desire to do your will, O my God; your law is within my heart." (Psalm 40:8)
