Here is a small proof;
"God is love"
the Apostle Paul says in the bible that "God is love", well, to put that to the test I posted an internet survey on Myspace religion and philosophy forum; titled "loveless atheists" and "godless atheists"
In the thread I asked if atheists love everyone; every single atheist posting mentioned that they only loved a few people;
so my argument is that if someone really knows God, then they actually love everyone (as I do), and since atheists don't know God they would only love a few at most; and this demonstrates a material implication that God is love.
update;
I feel sorry for my enemies, and intend good for everyone.
"love" may be a confusing word. Jesus told us to Agape (love) our ememies. I don't really know what agape means, but I do not appreciate, adore, or revere my ememies. so I do not love them.
On the other hand I feel sorry for them... so that is Pathos, not Agape.
But I do intend good for all. So if Agape means or materially implies intention of good then God is Love.
Even God doesn’t love everyone - it says so in the Bible. If there are limits to God’s love, then ‘God is love’ is a nonsensical statement.
