The point I have been making is that emotions are our sense of Value.
Rationalizations and logic are not sufficient to generate commitment. What
distinguishes scientists and mystics is first methodology and second
standards of verification. Scientists much submit their views to collective
agreement. Mystic live in their own little worlds.

This point-of-view may be true for you, it might be your 'reality',
but because you state it doesn't make it so for others. Your defense
of science is a social level interpretation, and I do not buy what
your selling. You never did explain your definition of 'emotions'
when I asked, and I was afraid you would use the term just so you
could point to your favorite brain chemical: Oxytocin, and that is
just what you did. Your statements about the mystic are dismissive;
it seems the subject obviously doesn't interest you even though it an
important part of RMP's books. And your arguments, in general, are
becoming weak and vindictive. As far as I can understand it, no one
wants to dismiss science, but put it in a secondary place to a
broader MoQ understanding. Why are you not happy with that?
