RE: Why emotions are more important than facts

in #philosophy7 years ago

I am pretty sure that a few of us who choose to "live out {our} primal urges as much and as long as {we} can" would get into a fair bit of trouble. ;c)

That being said, I do believe that there is valid scope for emotions. Emotions help us to invest in that which we do. Logic does not.

Logic can help us to invest in worthwhile causes. When it comes to choosing which path to take then I believe that emotions should take a back-seat to logic, and then come to the fore to help drive one forward.

Its an interesting topic. Thanks.

Thanks for the comment, path. I am actually writing a post about why emotions and logic are not even necessarily an oppposite atm. In logic you have preconditions and at some point you have to judge something on wether you feel it is true. You have to have a set of truths (a so called basis) that you cannot validate further.
