Wait, what did I do ? I didn’t know about this sense of the word “charity”. I was thinking it meant basically agape.

No, I was just giving you a hard time haha. I think the way that PS used it was as a kind of method for us to approach these arguments without feeling like we're defending something as personally as we have. Charity is something you do in argument so that you kind of lose the need to protect your own ideas like a mother bear protecting her cubs. It's just treating everything more objectively, which is hard to do when your religious beliefs are so personal.
