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.

When one loves someone , it can be felt with your sensors right ? Vision , hearing , touch etc.

You're confusing your terms here again.  The 'felt' response' is different from love.

I think you need to refresh your understanding of what equivocation means.

Is your contention with my claim of illogic or with how I have it labeled?  If the problem is the latter, what is the proper label?

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?
