Lets stop debating on God. Does Love exist ?

In statistical terms this is effectively a miracle, since in probability theory any outcome with odds less than 1 in 10^70 is considered an impossibility.

Wrongo pongo in my view;
'The impossible event has zero probabilityOne of the basic properties of probability is that the empty set must have zero probability (see the lecture on Probability for a formal proof). Therefore, by definition, impossible events have zero probability.'

A poem titled ~ What is love

the love we speak of
is not a trade
being unconditional
it assigns no grade

most seek reciprocation
or at least recognition
but true love dear hearts
is bliss ignition

look for these signposts
joy, empathy, peace, purity
all encompassing compassion
free from insecurity

That's funny, in my experience purity is contrary to selfless unconditional love.

Can you explain what you mean by purity and why its a necessary component of unconditional love?

I'm not convinced that there are people or animals that cannot experience love. I think that some simply cannot express it due to barriers resulting from ego.

How do barriers resulting from ego prevent people from expressing love?

I don't love to debate with an AI please.

Give me your own example if you care to

It's not an AI, its an article printed on marriage.com website

Does love exist ? what do you say ?

Yep.

 

[Trailblazer]

Love is a concept. It dosent actually exist in terms of being an actual thing.

Love is a feeling that exists in the mind.

How do barriers resulting from ego prevent people from expressing love?

Attachment to things such as trauma, fear, self-esteem, anger, material desire, self-importance, worrying about what others think, and even sociopathy are examples of ego barriers. These attachments as a result of the ego will prevent people from being able to express love.

Love is a feeling that exists in the mind.

Yes, but it also has causes-- or so it seems.

Also, there are different forms of love, which we should differentiate.

 

[Trailblazer]

There is nothing in this universe which exists by itself, independently of the rest of existence.

Nothing except God.

 

[SalixIncendium]

Nothing except God.

Where is God in this universe?

 

[Trailblazer]

love as a "spiritual" phenomenon.

Yes, real love is spiritual, but it is also an emotion that originates in the brain.

I don't see love as any more spiritual than any other emotion.

Maybe that is true, but did it ever occur to you that a person needs to have someone to express love towards?

 

[Trailblazer]

I don't see love as any more spiritual than any other emotion.

I see love as more spiritual than other emotions such as hate, anger and jealousy.

No. I was outside my room for a period of time today and there was no shortage of people. There are plenty here as well.

I see it as the same thing just the using different areas of the brain

 

[Trailblazer]

God = Love
God isn’t a being.

That makes no sense to me.

 

[Trailblazer]

All emotions originate in the brain but some are more spiritual than others.

 

[Trailblazer]

It is true that nobody is completely isolated but not all people have people they are close enough to to express love to.

It is true that nobody is completely isolated but not all people have people they are close enough to to express love to.

For me, closeness is not requisite to love.
