Do you think that we can boil down everything to science? Because I feel as though when I think of everything in terms of that,  the mystery goes away. Everything seems more clinical than "special".

(Sorry for being so vague)

FYI, everything is really just a chemical reaction.

Yeah, I know. But I'm thinking about things on a less magnified scale, if that makes sense. I find it really hard to grasp ideas about things I can't see. Valid point, though.

Yes, in the technical sense, people will always try to find a scientific explaination, however I do not believe that is ho things "should" work.
Science cannot answer everything, and should not.

Would life not be boring if everything was broken down to principles and everything is perfectly predicted by the laws of science?

I read the same article, and true are there are a lot of people that find the "chemical reactions" theory correct and logical

but somethings in life can be truth, but not justified truth. (Ghettier cases) and this is one of the grey areas~ and I don't think it should be attempted to be explained by science

I think the more interesting question is if we discover how exactly this reaction works, if we can artifically reproduce it and associate it with a person.  In other words, a real "love potion."  Just imagine the kind of impact something like that could have.

Have you seen or read Enduring Love by Ian Mcewan. Much of this book is concerned with the theme of Love being a trick of the mind to persuade humans to reproduce/protect their young etc.

I haven't, but it sounds good. I'll look into it.

YOUR FACE is just another chemical reaction.

You're confusing what you want with what actually exists. There is no instrinsic problem with investigating biological functions of living things, in facct so far the good has vastly outweighed the bad.

Everything can explained scientifically, except why it exists in the first place. Science does not remove the possibility of love being some higher power; it just observes what happens to us when we feel love.

---

Asking what causes things in the beginning is like asking what is north of the north pole. Inflationary Hot Big Bang does not require a t = 0.

Was that supposed to be an arguement or a comment? Because it bears no relation; I never was asking about what causes things, I just said that science can't determine it.

 Everything is clinical and a chemical reaction, but that doesn't mean it can't still be considered "special".  There is a reason that chemical reaction only takes place when you see certain people.

Good point.
