    So you have no hate or love? Interesting....

    Like he said, those are feelings. Love and hate have two different definitions but they're both really just the same. Both are feelings created by our brain. Just like when you're cold or hot, our body is affected by the temperature around us, thus acting in strange ways. They're all just brain functions.

    So knowledge and friendship don't exist either, correct? So you can't be described as anyone's friend, and you can't be labelled as smart either (eince there is no such thing as knowledge to you).
    And what tells the brain if it is love or hate? The difference has to be defined, as the brian can only detect neurosignals, and then interprets them based on its definitions. What is defining these responses? Does it exist physically? Can you measure it, or show me the location of the definitions?
    And if you went through long-term sensory deprivation, would that lower your capability to love or hate? Could you measure that?
