Just teasing, I'm the same way, I think: like you're doing something immoral if you just let illogical statements go unchallenged.

Both our emotions and intuitions and our rational minds are prone to play tricks on us, just in different ways. We have our rational minds to compensate for the tricks our hearts play on us and science to compensate for the tricks our rational minds play on us.
Note that although I used your language for ease of communication, I don't really differentiate between my heart and mind: it's all mind, and I try not to neglect any of my faculties. I do try to use the right cognitive tool for the right job, though.
