The Reasons why "Just Following Jesus" Doesn't work

would you explain how you see this as possible.
You spoke about predictability from chaos. How can you believe that structure could come from chaos (being the total lack of order). There is no order in chaos, so the only thing there could be, would be chaos. This is why I can say that "with chaos you can't assume or predict".
Ramsey theory states that in any sufficiently large sequence of randomness, there will be pockets of order. So, no, you're wrong.

But if there is no function, then there is no proper way for the world to work. Staying within your view point, love (like justice) works because of society yet society is a collection of people. So what I read and understand that you are saying is that love is a reality because people have "conceived" of this idea, for use as a society, to feel a way about something.
To me, if love is just a mental thing then it is as arbitrary as tinker bell. Everyone must believe enough in it and when they don't it ceases to exist. That is not reality. For love to be real/concrete it must function outside of our own "concepts". 
Do you have a subconscious? Are the products of your subconscious mind objectively real?

Funny, it doesn't feel like love. It feels more like a threat.
