You decide to love more then yourself rationally, you would see you must love all good living beings.

Not possible and not desirable.  Love is an emotion, not a logical thought process, and attempting to love everyone both trivializes love and turns it into an obligation rather than a gift.

Furthermore, the word "must" is a red flag.  I think it's insufferably rude to attempt to dictate what someone else's emotional landscape should be; in fact, I view such a demand as abusive and not loving at all.

No.  You don't get to decide what I want, either.

Quote:I have offered many of these proofs.

Not "proof"; not even evidence, IMO.  Just a religion-inspired hypothesis at this point.
