I'm sorry, but this thread is bullshit until "significant" is defined. The feelings we call love are obviously very strong motivators-- they cause people to behave in ways they otherwise wouldn't. If people's behavior is significant, then love is significant.
I think what you are really trying to get at is at mind/matter duality, with the possibility of the existence of the soul and God as "peripheral." Unlike most here, I'm not a physical monist, so I agree with much of what I expect you to say. However, since you've declared as Christian, I assume you are also building a case in order to support the idea of a Christian God. I won't agree with that.
Also, welcome.
