I don't think familial bonds count in unconditional love.

Everything in life exists with conditions. Unconditional love, in my opinion, isn't loving without the existence of conditions but when you choose to love despite any conditions.

I think there is also a vast misunderstanding where "unconditional love" has been equated with "loving everyone to the max". There is also a dominant opinion of "spirits over bodies" in these kinds of communities where physical relationships are often considered inferior to 'spiritual' ones, which I think is ridiculous.

Again, however, I just have to make this point to your comment anagogy - "Either everyone/everything is your family or nothing is."

I think that attitude is the pinnacle of "conditional" love because it creates conditions for yourself and your own loving. Either you love everyone or you don't love anyone? Ridiculous self-expectation. This kind of philosophy can be damaging for people who already struggle with their own ability to love, and feeling like if their love is limited that they are "loveless" is very upsetting.

I know that's not your intention, but sometimes folks on here make such black and white, absolute statements that it kinda blows my mind...
