I don't see your views as a "conversational abomination", I see them as the puerile musings of a self-aggrandising, pretentious tit. Now maybe that's an unfair assessment but given your phrasing, that's how you come across.
How could suggesting love exists absolutely as well as beauty, as a phenomenon we can interact with based on it having existed before we got here more pretentious than saying love and beauty are an artificial construct arrived at as a byproduct of the over-braining of humans?
To me, the definition of SELF-AGRANDIZEMENT is seating your self at the throne of the universe. Did you cause yourself to exist? If so, then I will but bow down and worship at the feet of your magestic splendor. We have been given this life by no merits of our own, understanding that is humility, the opposite of self-aggrandizement or self-worship (humanism).
