Answer 1

The bible is a hoax. The christian religion was created by the Roman emperor Constantine 1700 years ago because groups of people believing in different religions were too hard to control. The word “Catholic” means (literally) “Universal”. One religion controlled by one government.

The stories in the bible as the same stories told by more than a dozen other religions that were already quite ancient by the time Constantine & his co-conspirators got together.

The name “jesus” is a DIRECT theft of the Celtic “Hesus” & “Isus”. And the tales of his so-called deeds mimic the historically verifiable, real life of Apollonius of Tyana. If this “jesus” REALLY did all those things then why is there not one single historian of the times who ever even mentioned his name?

Let’s look at one bible story:
The Great Flood.
According to bible historians, this world wide flood happened about 6,000 years ago. Yet we KNOW that the Pyramids at Giza are much older then that. The bible scholars claim the Grand Canyons in america were cut when the “great flood” waters receded. If that’s true then why did these very same receding flood waters leave the pyramids COMPLETELY intact & undamaged?

For the last 1700 years the christian mantra has been, “Jesus loves you, accept that or die.” More people have been murdered in the name of “God” than any other cause in the entire history of mankind. And they have the audacity to turn around & say “God is love”.

You ask that people explain their answers, somehow I don’t see any viable explanations coming from a bunch of “one-liners”.

You ask, “Are humans able to obtain the highest feeling of love without Gods of religions?”

All “gods” are creations of humans. The gods are found only within the self. They are not ghosts in some other dimension who controls your every move. To find your gods, you must look inside yourself. And remember, the god you save my be yourself.

Answer 3

God Almighty is the very personification of the principle of Love.

Yes, God is the source of love.

No, humans are not pure love.

Again it comes to this: an Emotional being verse a Principled being.

Love is an emotion and no doubt you understand that emotions are volatile, they can change with time. Thus, the statement "we just fell out of love" and similar like minded statements.

Love is also a foundation principle, rather, the foundation principle for all good things. It is more deliberate and intentional at its core. Love for an enemy is love out of principle. Not that you have warm feelings for your enemy but that you recognize that they are a human being and thus extend to them all basic human dignity and respect. It also means that if your enemy was in trouble, say drowning, you would jump in and rescue him/her at the risk of losing your own life. It also means that you care for your wife/husband and children even when you disagree with them. It is proactive, not reactive. Principled love is the standard by which one measures ones own actions. (that is anyone who accept and practices that principle)

("Is there any differences between the love of Atheists and Agnostics to the love of people with religion?")

There are difference between people in general, no matter the beliefs one holds. It really is dependent on their personal values. (either virtuous or not)

I hope this helps... Journey Well...

Answer 4

Depends on the God I guess.

Many of the Gods of Hinduism, sure, I find many Eastern religions have beautiful structures.


I wouldn't want to meet the man who could read the Old Testament and mention love in the same sentence as the Biblical monster.

Answer 5

try www.spiritualatheism.org

God in religions is a loving God but also jealous, cruel and expect you to worship Him..

God in spirituality is universal love, compassion, agape.

Based on "God is all and all are God."
Do you think God is the source of love or do you think humans are pure love?
no duality. no god. no human. no source. just love.

Are humans able to obtain the highest feeling of love without Gods of religions?
of course.

the word 'God' is the confusing one.

Answer 6

I learned love through my God, who is the Alpha and Omega - the Christian God.

In the Christian religion, love is our greatest commandment. We are taught about 3 different types of love in the Bible. The least is Eros, which is the emotional/sexual love, so predominant in our culture today. It's a self-seeking love, because it's about making yourself feel good.

The second love is Phileo - which is a kind of kinship or a friendship love.

Our highest love is Agape. One of the greatest definition of Agape Love is found in I Corinthians Chapter 13 in the Bible.

In that love, it is a sacrificial love, that seeks not to hurt, and seeks to lift others above ourselves.

I don't think that humans are pure love. We can aspire to be loving.

However, when you seek to be like Christ, you seek for the Agape love, which is the basis for Jesus' death on the Cross.

For that reason, I don't think that it's possible to obtain the highest feeling of love without God.

Answer 7

It would depend entirely on which of the thousands of gods you are referring to. Also it depends on what type of love you are talking about. One of the weaknesses of the English language is the multiple different meanings for the word love.

Personally, I would say that there is no deity which is the source of love and that humans ARE NOT purely love.

Answer 8

No difference in love. Humans create/ feel love. Humans obtain the highest levels of love AND hate.

No gods needed.

Answer 9

What ever made you believe that love exists? It hasn't been proven to exist just as much as any god out there...

You choose a life partner based on subconscious series of selections, down to immune system and all. When you are forced to choose between saving a complete stranger and saving your parent, you would save your parent because you want to preserve your genes. None of the above have to do with love, but they are called unconditional (or otherwise) love.

Answer 10

There is one Almighty God. His name is Jehovah.He is the Sovereigh of the universe and creator of all things.
His greatest attribute is love.Mankind was created in God's image ie. man displays the same attributes such as love,justice,kindness,mercy etc.
Man cannot do anything without Jehovah God who is the source of all life.
God and religion are two seperate things.
