Just get him started on the "monkey people" and stand back.

Therefore, we must conclude that

Well, that is a fairly innocuous and altogether uninteresting conclusion.
It also means that talking about "God's love" is incoherent, as it amounts to speaking of love's love. (Huh? Feelings don't have feelings.)

As chimp3 said: Who is this "we" to whom you are referring? Because, as it turns out, "we" don't feel that way at all. I'm willing to grant that some people do (and maybe you're one of them), but I suspect that quite a lot of people don't feel that way at all (and I'm one of those).
Pro tip: Presuming to speak for everybody can come across as really condescending, not to mention a bit insulting. It is not endearing.

If he doesn't exist (isn't real), then he doesn't love us—since no referent exists for the consequently meaningless "he."
P.S. This will be my one and only engagement with Johanabrahams, as I find him intolerably incoherent.
I'm warming to this one.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
