Does this definition of Love work for you?

By nature. Yes.

Absolutely not! The pursuit of selfish desires is most harmful. We are meant to be cooperative. Two people working together can always accomplish more than both working seperately.

Why? Why do you need to have feelings for others? Why?
Because if I scratch your back you'll scratch mine.
Quote:
Doesn't it stop you from greater power? Why?
No! Being selfish stops you from attaining greater power.

If you have feeling for animals (or human), then how can you heightens your power?
How can you obtain power by using unenlightened actions? Love conquers all. It's not just a warm fuzzy sentence. It's proven time and again to be a law of the universe.

I am willing to kill other people for knowledge. If I were to live in Renaissance period, I will kill people to get detailed information about human anatomies. To create great work of arts.
Yes, nothing satisfy me more than knowledge.
Wow. Are you a sith lord or something? This sounds a bit too bizarre. I'm beginning to doubt that this is a real post. It's almost like something Satan himself would say. Are you the anti-Christ?

Saying that, I do not believe in evil. I think that you either try to do good, or you are insane. And this fact that we all want to do good is evidence that God exists. There is a movement towards goodness, an inertia, a tide, a current that pulls us all along towards being good. Even Hitler thought he was doing good. We'll argue all day long over the definition of what good is. We'll even get into wars over it, but we'll still want to do what we define as good.
