Yes, love must be chemical in its essence. Pheromones hold the key. Sad.......

Not love, "attraction", a very different animal.

Tenet.
If you've followed my conversation with Neocon, you will see that science (honest science in any case) does not seek to explain everything. Sure there are people who strenuously desire that it do so. But it is not RPT not a basic premise built into science that it either contain everything, or nothing at all. Love does not fall into the currently accepted category of "repeatable, quantifiable observata". That being so it is an unsuitable scientific topic. And yet I wouldn't dream of denying its force in my life.
