Emotions

Emotions are pointless. They are irritating. They destroy you. They enable you to question humanity's two goals here on Earth- to breed and to work. Indeed, emotions actually make life and humanity's two goals a lot harder.

So, why hasn't a scientist demolished emotions yet? You'd have thought it'd be top of the agenda. Think about it. A world without emotions. No hate, no sadness, no depression, no embarrasment. On the contrary, we would miss out on small, temporary emotions like happiness and love. But what use are these emotions if they are not permanent? In fact, these emotions usually provoke bad emotions anyway.

The only thing that stands in humanity's way of being perfect is emotions. No war, no crime, no emotional illness'.

So, what are your thoughts on emotions? Do you think they should be abolished?

A world without emotions
No happyness - great aload of missrable sods
No enjoyment - Great another session of Big brother
No Anger - I like my rage
No love - and thus loads of single people


WOW a planet of Vulcans

Emotions are what make life worth living. There's no point in humanity being "perfect" if we can't enjoy it.

My philosophy is that we create our own reason for being, beyond merely shagging our brains out and work.

If that truely was the purpose, surely the army ant or bees are more "perfect" than us?

What we don't get is that perfection is subjective and merely a concept.

Personally, I'm fine with people feeling emotions, even if they are irrational. There's an upside to every down side.

So you think having no emotions would make us perfect?

Maybe if you're talking about perfection in levels of intelligence, but having no emotions seems completely ridiculous to me. That would make for quite a horrible world.

Watch the movie Equilibrium.

I curse emotions often, trust me, but I could not imagine a world without them.

EDIT: lol someone already pointed out that movie. . .WATCH IT.

When the Americans first started going into space they spent millions of dollars developing a pen that would work in space so that they could write down observations.

The Russians used a pencil.

Without emotions, humanity's greatest gift of laughter will not exist. Without laughter, there is no joy and without joy, each day will seem more like a task than a gift.
