Just had a guy claim Bramha created science.......He he......Yea, and conveniently the Vedas match science. We've never had Christians claim God made science or try to prop up the bible with it. We've never had Muslims claim Allah made science and use the Koran to prop up their god claim. Hindus are much older, so lets just ignore it is the same retrofitting after the fact because all of them don't want to give up on fairy tales.
The tried to argue "Please find me the scientific formula for happiness", as if we have never run into the abstraction argument.
Our emotions are evolutionary and are a result of biochemical reactions to stimuli. We give them different layperson descriptions, just like one would assign the number "1" to 1 apple, 1 car, 1 dog. "Love" is a word describing REAL chemical reactions in our brains when we react to something.
We can literally monitor brain activity in a lab and observe how the brain responds to stimuli. There is no magic or god or gods needed to explain anything. Our biology and evolution explain our emotions.
