Emotions aren't logical. They are not supposed to be. Thinking, however, must be or it is worthless useless futile.Agree?

You love whom you love. There is no logic to it.

You think what you think. If you cannot logically explain why then your thinking is awry. You need to rethink what you think so you can.

    Emotions are far more logical than any thinking.

    There is always a logical reason for how we feel.  It may be convoluted and/or skewed but it will be traced back to WHY it happens.


    If I get angry every time I see a pregnant woman, there are reasons.  I may have been raised by a pregnant woman who beat the crap out of me at some stage of my development.  That makes no sense to think that way, but it makes sense on the emotional level as to why the feelings of anger are triggered.   Or, maybe the  angry one is infertile and jealous.   This is why we have shrinks.  To unearth these hidden LOGICAL reasons we think as we do.

    It is logical, it is just not as easy to see the reason.

    I don't know about that.  Seems to me if we can't come up with any better reason for loving someone than that we love them then we are in trouble!

    I value and cherish my freedom.  As I do being able to keep and use the fruits of my labors in any way I choose. And not having my money ot property subject to being taken by the government.   I admire industriousness and sacrifice and vision in others - which is often rewarded by success.  I love God and like being able to worship God in the way I choose.  I don't think a government should have as its business or right trying to fix all the suffering or everything happening in the world.  Basically I just like just being able to be myself which is all I ask really. So wouldn't it be logical that I would vote for Trump who supports all these things?
