Loving God More Than Your Family & Spouse

People do this all the time in other contexts.  Some people love the "sense of reward" [an intangible entity] of their job more than their families.

You've now equivocated, defining 'imaginary' the same as 'intangible.'

Again you've equivocated, defining something that is 'intangible' as 'imaginary'.

If you are defining God as imaginary (God is intangible and intangible entities are imaginary) then it is understandable why you can't understand why a person would choose to love God more than a spouse.  By your own standard you would also then have to ask the question: how can a person love in the first place, how is that possible?  After all love is an intangible entity and therefore imaginary.

If it could be proven beyond doubt that God exists...
and that He is the one spoken of in the Bible...
would you repent of your sins and place your faith in Jesus Christ?
