Emotions are intrinsically good and bad

[Transcended Dimensions]

Excellent, then use my remarks as a means of improving the message? Making contradictory proclamations -is- speaking nonsense. Rather than complain about the recipient recognizing nonsense, perhaps you should find some other..less nonsensical way to communicate whatever it is you're trying to say?

You still haven't given anyone a reason to think that emotions and thoughts are separate categories in the first place, and you're asserting that while there may be more than one kind of good, one of the kinds of good is somehow uniformly gooder than the other kind of good. So much sop, that it makes no sense to call them both good, and that only your selected good truly qualifies for the moniker.

Is this your emotional value judgement, or a thoughtful appraisal? Does the satisfaction that a sex offender feels count as an emotional good? Is it a "gooder good" than, say, knowing that sex offense is wrong?

Let me add one more thing to this. For you to ask what the difference between a thought and emotion is makes it seem like human beings are emotionless creatures and that how they define an emotion is a thought. I know this isn't true. We as human beings do have real emotions. If I were living with a human race who defined thoughts as emotions without having any real emotions, then it would be as though I am having an experience that these race of humans cannot even begin to comprehend. It would be like I am a sighted person who could see the good value, beauty, and bad value of this life like how a sighted person would visualize colors while the rest of the human would be like blind people (i.e. nothing but machines) who could only have thoughts of the good and bad qualities of life. This would have to mean that a person who is completely miserable, has no positive emotions, but thinks of love and good value towards a family member and helps said family member would still be living like nothing but a machine.

It would still be no way to live. Like I said, I know we as human beings have real emotions. I will give you an example. You could have the thought of feeling sexually aroused while completely miserable and anhedonic, or you could actually feel sexually aroused. This is the difference between thoughts and emotions. Lastly, you can't have any good value, joy, beauty, bad value, or misery in your life without your emotions just as how a blind person cannot have red, blue, green, etc. in his life either. I liken my worldview to a blind person who thinks that seeing colors is vital and precious to him. I wish to truly see the goodness and beauty in my life. Without that, then my life is empty. Like I said, I think that all our lives would be empty without our ability to see these good values.
