One would have to assume that "Higher Level where Unconditional Love lives" exists.
FWIW, love and hate are emotions; human traits which limit us. IMHO, "God" just is and the same for whatever lies beyond the natural universe, if anything.
Everyone is capable of creating Unconditional Love. On the other hand, people choose other choices which is part of the education process. The system is geared to teach Unconditional Love so that will be the end result. The time-based causal nature of this universe is perfect for learning.
People think that God will poof and create a Heavenly state for them. In reality, one must learn to create that Heavenly state before it is possible. There is much to learn. It could never be learned in one mere lifetime.
We are Spiritual beings in our true natures. I have direct experience to this. On the other hand, this physical world provides so much sensory input that it's easy to be seduced into thinking that is all there is.
People have two halves: The Reason half and the Emotional half. One should always lead with the Reason half. Why? If one leads with the Emotional half, one could get lost in a sea of emotions. It's never fun to be lost.
You are right. Love and Hate are emotions and what would life be without emotions? On the other hand, reason should still lead. Why? When one thinks then acts, the results are better in most cases than simply reacting.
Do human traits really limit us? For the most part, I think we limit ourselves. In time, we will learn not to do this.
The first thing God pointed out to me was that mankind carries such a narrow view. I cry that! I work on mine every day.
Well, that's my view.
