Some piously affirm: "The truth is such and such. I know! I see!"
And hold that everything depends upon having the “right” religion.
But when one really knows, one has no need of religion. - Mahavyuha Sutra
Freedom necessarily involves risk. - Alan Watts

Anyway, I'm going to jump on the bandwagon and say I used to be like AP as well. Although, I'm far too much of a stereotypical Scotch Presbyterian hard-hearted ****** for any of this soppy rubbish!
There doesn't really seem to be much of an idea of romance in the Bible. From what I remember, Paul does leave his love life up to fate as this girl does, although he seemed to think of singleness as more of a blessing. Indeed, he says somewhere that people should only get married if they think they won't be able to avoid fornication otherwise. And then there's that bit where Jesus says some men become eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. So all in all, I don't think her very modern, idealised views on love have any biblical roots.
At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.
