after typing a long epistle yesterday evening, as i was about to post my phone went off, i felt like crying. But anyways, this is my contribution @plaetton i like your contribution in explaining love in a logical or scientific way, i would suggest we look at it neurologically because it involves the brain, the biochemical reactions, hormones e.t.c. First, it’s important to define what we can of romantic love, to give a starting off point. While no single dictionary can define the concept, love has been associated with romantic passion, and an intense attraction involving trust, belief, pleasure, and reward activities within the brain 1,2. These processes have been thought to involve chemicals such as oxytocin, vasopressin, dopamine, and serotonergic signaling (2). Oxytocin plays a role in bonding after mating, bonding after childbirth, trust, sexual behavior, and in the ability to form normal social attachments (3). Vasopressin, involved also in social interactions, has sparked recent interest involving its role in sexual interactions. This chemical, which is released into the brain during sexual activity, is now thought to initiate and sustain the pattern of activity that supports the pair bond between sexual partners (4). Dopamine is often associated with the pleasure part of the brain, providing feelings of enjoyment, which encourages a person to perform an activity proactively (5). Lastly here, serotonergic signaling is thought of as having an effect on body temperature, mood, sleep, vomiting, sexuality, and appetite (6). All of these chemicals together are thought to play a large role involving love in the brain. There is a science article on process of love. Here: serendip.brynmawr.edu/exchange/node/97 4 Likes |

Mclick: What's the purpose of eternal punishment for sinners in hell? If they don't have any chance of coming out,What good does it serve them Since according to you everything God does is for the good of mankind. So What good does hell fire serve to sinners When they would never have a chance to come out of it again? 2 Likes |

Dapo777:hell is primarily meant for the devil AND sinners who will not repent. If you have a child you punish him for an offence after pre warning? Its the same thing. Moreso sinners has more chance and opportunity to repent, if then they decide other wise, then its not God's fault. You wouldn't be a wicked father if after providing for your children and the one who decide to be bad always stealing and in the process he is hanged |

thehomer: "Love is not blind-It sees more and not less, but because it sees more it is willing to see less." ~Will Moss Love allows us to "see" past others' faults. After all, none of us is perfect. Love helps us become less judgmental and more tolerant. 2 Likes |

Mclick: Was it the father that hanged the child? That's one of the problems I have with the Christian idea of punishment. Can you hang your child,no matter the offence he may commit? |

Mclick: That is a different case. The world doesn't claim to love people unconditionally, Yes they should be killed If they are threat,how does that apply to God? Are sinners threat to God? Are sinners threats to God? Think! Don't leave your brain idle. 2 Likes |

Have you ever thought about your pagan grand parents who don't believe in Jesus, Where do you think they are? If your beliefs are true then all your ancestors are burning in hell!!!!! Why? Because they didn't believe in Jesus, will you Happy to see them burn in hell while you are in heaven having fun with Yahweh? Does that make any sense to you? ![]() It doesn't take over-sabi to be an atheist, it takes common sense and studying the Bible with an open mind to be an atheist. 5 Likes |

Kay17:love is a person: Jesus Christ. Wow. I really love talking about love. Its the story of mans salvation you see. A love story. Love is not an emotion. It is not a feeling. This is love kay17: not that kay17 loved God, but that he loved her, and gave Jesus as a ransom for her wrongdoing. We can start from there |

Dapo777:I thought you agreed to be a truth seeker. Why the insult to the Christains bible? Or have you taken a position? Or has this been the position but cowardice suppressed it while motivation here brought it out? |
Re: Let's Talk About Love. by Nobody: 9:41am On Nov 06, 2014 |
Reyginus: Question for the gods. Who cares What you think? Insult is the only language Christians understand, So I have to speak their language for them to understand me. So now taking a position means I have been a coward all these while to speak up,how silly can you get? There is Nothing more to seek again. The truth is that Yahweh doesn't exist. That's the truth,I no longer need to seek any truth again cos I have found the truth. 1 Like |

Dapo777:There was a time you showed to care. Let me help you here. A good man cares about what good people have to say. Or have you concluded that I am not a good man without understanding me or you are not a good man yourself or you don't even agree that a good man must act so? Tell me, Dapo. Dapo777:This is a wrong statement, my friend, but I am still ready to hear why you think so. Go on.. Dapo777:Lol. I didn't say you've been a coward. I was only asking if you have been. They are not the same, my friend. The main reason the question you asked here is unnecessary and ill-founded. Do you still stand by it? Dapo777:How did you find it. Tell me your methods. |

Love, by its very nature, is unworldly, and it is for this reason rather than its rarity that it is not only apolitical but anti-political, perhaps the most powerful of all anti-political human forces. |
Re: Let's Talk About Love. by Nobody: 10:16am On Nov 06, 2014 |
Love is NOT emotion, but the subjects can experience emotional imbalances and balances. Love is an expression of the Laws of attraction in the physical universe. It is safe to say that love is a manifestation of nature's magnetism on biotics. 1 Like |
