I would not say that romance in stories is necessarily a bad thing. Some of the greatest literary romances are quite complicated really.
I would go on to say that some of those romances are wonderful. Eros and Psyche is one example. Beauty and the beast is about learning to love before someone becomes loveable.sigpic -
One thing I've wondered about is why such a high percentage of Christian books seem to be romance novels. I've been in Facebook groups relating to free Christian books and the vast majority of what I've seen are thematic romances (seemingly a lot of them are Amish romances, American pioneer romances, or mail order bride romances)."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard RavenhillComment
