داگلب بالتلي ولكيت هاي:
أعظم شعور تمنحه للآخر الأمان ، ثمَ القوة .. أن يشعر في أعماقه أن الحياة لا تستطيع هزيمته وأنتَ معه.

وبنفس الوقت تذكرت مقولة إدكار آلان بو اللي طشت بكل مكان:
Tell me every terrible thing you
ever did, and let me love you
anyway.

So here's my theory:

People no longer believe 'really' in religion, even if they formally do; the concept of God does not offer the same psychological relief as it used to do before.

That's why they try to satisfy their psychological needs via romantic love; they want their lovers to forgive their sins, grant them strength, and reward them with heaven (through a kiss, or a wild night). And since God cannot guide them anymore, they look for guidance through feelings and emotion.
God has been, in a very non-elegant way, replaced by heartwarming movies, and romantic songs. Just look at most romantic quotes and you'll find remnants of religious prayers in them.

Poor humans...
They have killed God, and now believe that they themselves, through love and knowledge, can be baptized anew as gods.

Bot:
Also
Sufist songs are indistinguishable from love songs

True, tho for Sufists, love was a way of worshipping God, not of replacing him.

Bot:
Sure
I'm just alluding to the idea that romantic and God love seem to stem from the same root. The same mental processes producing nearly identical literature.

Yeah, I get your point 🍻

Bot:
Halsey;
I know I've only felt religion when I've lied with you

Taylor:
I know heaven's a thing
I go there when you touch me
Honey hell is when I fight with you
But we can patch it up good
Make confessions and we're begging for forgiveness

Hozier
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies

Fall out boy:
If you were church, I'd get on my knees
Confess my love, I'd know where to be
My sanctuary, you're holy to me

حبيت الـ dedication بجمع الأدلة على الكلام الفوك 😂💚

بالمناسبة
Don't get me wrong, romantic poetry and songs existed for as long as poetry and songs were around, and they are beautiful and must be cherished. But they were merely entertainment, lovely metaphors, and fairy tales, not a guidance for how to live one's life in the way they are used now.
Also, I definitely don't wanna be understood as a moralist who calls for letting go of 'western, immoral love' and return to the haven of religion. I think we're obviously beyond this point anyways.

وَتِلْكَ الْأَيَّامُ نُدَاوِلُهَا بَيْنَ النَّاسِ

[سورة آل عمران]

Do you tell me, friends, that there is no dispute over taste? But all life is a dispute over taste.

- Thus Spoke Zarathustra

Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people.

- Karl Marx

Latin: nullum magnum ingenium sine mixtura dementiae fuit.

English: There was no great genius, without an element of madness.

- Aristotle
