6. The Chemistry of Love

What does chemistry have to do with love? Many of us are intrigued by the magic in chemistry. Do you remember being surprised when you learned that two hydrogen molecules and one molecule of oxygen, both gases, can make water, an entirely different state of matter? True Father paints the picture of God as the supreme chemist who created us to experience the greatest love in all of heaven and earth in every cell of our body. We have been endowed with powerful chemical and neurological aspects intended to support eternal, monogamous love between husband and wife. Scientists now call the sexual pleasure cycle a biological reward system that acts as a bonding agent when a couple engages in sex. All the body’s senses work together with these hormones to create a formidable force for attraction and pleasure.
