How much of God do we need to know when "God is love"? [1 John 2: 4,
16] Me thinks, the more you know about love, the less you actually love.
And I don't think science will be of any help in this matter.

CHRIST'S COMMANDMENTS ALL EXHORT US TO LOVE
Jesus in Jn:13:34: A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love
one
another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
Jesus in Jn:13:35: By this shall all men know that ye are my
disciples,
if ye have love one to another.
Jesus in Jn:15:12-13: This is my commandment: That ye love one
another,
as I have loved you. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay
down
his life for his friends.
