The presence of a Jew gives substance to the world. His mere being byond his activity.
The expression of something spiritual and even one's emotions can be grasped, but not the essence.
Some people think they can understand everything and they deny the spiritual quality of the human being. They reduce the human being to an interaction between organs or other entities. As a result of this they deny the existence of the soul. Love/ahavah says chassidus is the deepest emotion and connects us with G-d and with others. As far as they can see it doesn't exist and everything has an ulterior motive.
They become sure of this position. They say shame or embarassment is just social, not a soul expression. And that love is just machination.
Since we cannot grasp the essence, so what makes it real? Only because you know on a deeper level that there is a 'first Creator' and so this makes the creation real...
it goes without saying that going into greater permissiveness or promiscuity will not lead to purpose or satisfaction. Contact with a true Jewish element will give him deep satisfaction. He looks for and comes into contact with the 'truth of his existence'.

Kids are told, 'you'll become an engineer and make money and be a somebody!' and the kid answers, 'I cannot build myself on external means, it doesn't speak to me, I have to be real, then I can do something.'
