Paladino, it seems to me, should profess his love for his nephew and still proclaim his abhorrence of the young man's lifestyle.

IMO one should not sacrifice one’s core beliefs because of a close relative or friend's differing ones.

You can care for someone without endorsing the other’s way of life.

Christ said we must love one another as we love ourselves. He didn't say we had to love what the the other does or doesn't do.

That’s EXACTLY what Paladino should do. You hit the nail on the head.
