What meaning does love have to an atheist?

My love for my family is deep and strong, your implication was that some fairy tale bollocks would somehow make it stronger, it could not.

Precisely why I didn't bother responding to his bullshit. I love my wife, my son, and countless others (including pets) immensely. I feel the emotion known as love so deeply that I can actually understand how the gullible and the ignorant can mistakenly believe in the soul.

It is nothing but trollish hyperbole to suggest that an 'atheist' is incapable of love.
