You seem to be defining words in such a way as to make a certain conclusion inevitable, and then... either not being happy with it, or challenging us to prove it wrong? I'm not sure. It's not the job of science to tell people how worthwhile their life is, what they should value or how they value it.
I don't know what scientific results you're hoping to get, you seem to have defined things so that there is only one outcome.
Someone else better take over, my brain cell is failing me today!
My point here is that it is science that proves and disproves things. Not our personal moral opinions. Therefore, just because we say and think to ourselves that our lives still have good meaning without our pleasant emotions doesn't make it so. Science would have to prove otherwise. And, yes, I am asking for someone to challenge my theory.
