On the contrary, I think "God is LITERALLY love, and I will accept no other definitions" is the most simplistic and boneheaded definition I've ever heard. I tend to trust in humanity's ability to reason through this sort of thing. I'm sorry if you've encountered people who simply can't.

I don't believe anyone has that thought.

However if you are trying to convey a message to people, you have to use their definitions of words, or at least define your own clearly so that people don't write you off as being ignorant.
