    Right! I remember this part, he was saying that "A causes B" is "B values
    precondition A", and I agree "love" fits in here very well, virtually
    synonomously. I'd also say that B is what is expected given precondition A,
    and love is the will to do what is expected.

    Yeah, anything doing what is expected is loving. Water turning to steam
    when it is boiled is loving, a very faithful and unwaveringly strong love.
    If we expect a rock to fall on our foot, it is love that carries out our
    expectaion and actually makes the rock fall on your foot. (It's not
    "gravity", or "electromagnetism" - it is love)
