"Love" is the label that humans apply to a set of emotions, caused by a series of chemicals released in our brains.
There are a minority of people, sociopaths for example, that do not have the ability to create some of these chemicals. And guess what? They don't feel love.
The fact that love can be explained through neuroscience, does not detract one bit from the feelings. In fact, it makes it all the more amazing.
No magical ghost in the machine necessary. Biology for the win!
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
