The diagram depicting the physical processes is merely that. Part of mankinds endless desire to quantify and control. Love summarised in an a4 poster.You confuse Love with being in love. Not necessarily the same. And too much focusing on sexual relations= Love. Sex without Love is as possible as Love without sex.
The value of it?? Well, I can aspire to Love the whole of existence. I can realise that other peoples' Loves can be as different to mine as the language we may speak. I greet strangers with a smile. I am tolerant.(yes, several Jessicas, and worse.) The hardest bit is trying to Love those who Hate. Sometimes impossible, but I'm no (insert name of well-known V.good geezer.) I just try.
After all, it really is the only thing that binds us all together, isn't it? Whatever, whoever, we all Love.

Quote:God is Love.
There is no evidence to suggest that god exists.

Quote:You confuse Love with being in love.
Doesn't matter what kind of love it is. Every emotion is based on chemical reactions.

Quote:Sex without Love is as possible as Love without sex.
I should know. Some of my most joyful nights was being with the girl of my dreams that had nothing to do with sex. Some snogging though. Tongue

Quote:I can realise that other peoples' Loves can be as different to mine as the language we may speak.
Love can feel stronger for some and weaker for others but either way the chemical reactions in the brain are the same. There are differant ways to feel love but they are all still based on chemical reactions. There is no evidence to suggest it is anything more than that.

Quote:Love summarised in an a4 poster.
Pretty much. That's all there is really. Don't bother me though. We are just a pile of walking meat who has an extremely limited time in existance and is very easily killed by just about anything. We are tiny, unimportant and nothing more than living meat in clothes. So what? Holding your girlfriends arm is just you holding living meat. Lots of blood cells flowing through it. Not very romantic I know but hey that's what it is. Several layers of skin that is easily damaged and infected and behind that soft tissue carring lots of important things. And yet, having knowledge of this doesn't bother me. Maybe I'm just strange.Big Grin
I wish I was biomachanical. That would be so cool!

My gawd! Confusedhock:

All in all, there is nothing to suggest that love is spiritual and also concluding that it's spiritual does not futher our understanding in anway. No knowledge is gained as there is no useful infomation to analise. That is the major problem I have with your answer. There is no detail infomation, like how does it work. How does "spiritual" give me deep knowledge to how it works. Where is the data? What is there to analise? Neuroscience has given me the infomation with detail and evidence. Something to look into and analise. Religion hasn't. It's fine to conclude that it's spiritual but I want the deep knowledge and understanding of it. How it works. Also it needs to contradict what science has given. See the problem? I need data, not claims.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
