Yes, I go to the gym and I play sports outside with my family as well as going out and enjoying nature in general. What else is there that you are imp...
I did not simply say that positive emotions are the objective good and negative emotions being the objective bad as that would be too simple. I also i...
My view would actually be an upgraded version of hedonism. Like I said, I called it "New Age Hedonism." A charge could either be positive or negative ...
I have never experienced the more complicated emotions, what I assume you mean to say a thought form of emotion (i.e. a thought that is an emotional s...
I personally think that our emotions are the objective good and bad regardless of what people think. People can have false judgments in regards to obj...
There are two objective values. The first type would be the ones that situations or people have such as saying that the harmful acts of a criminal are...
I would like to say one last thing here. My version of a sacred monk might sound like the most simplistic way of life and being. But simple solutions ...
Consider it my own personal definition of transcendent then. My positive emotions, for me, are transcending life force of goodness in my life. I would...
Actually, let me present to you a logical argument that should make my point clear. I will first start out with introducing what I have to say and I w...
By saying that, then you would be agreeing with my theory. According to my theory, pain would be our negative emotions and pleasure would be our posit...
Well, my theory is just pointing out here that, without wanting, then nothing can be of any good value to you. That is, nothing can matter to you in a...
I am going to present to you an experiment that can prove that things that are good to us can only be things that we want. If you were to set up an ex...

There is an objective form of wanting. It would be our positive emotions. Here, I will quote something that points that out: In order for my theory to...
I said that emotions are a sense dependent upon thought. When you have a thought (value judgment), then we could consider this to be nothing more than...
This is an important notice to everyone here. I have now modified my post to not only make my theory more coherent, but to also make it better. Theref...
Actually, please read my opening post again because it clears this objection up you are having. I have now modified my opening post to fully convey my...

I'm glad you finally understand my worldview. If this worldview is true, then it could change the world because most people currently believe that it ...
That's not the full insight. I established earlier that our positive emotions are like the sense of taste in the very beginning of my logical argument...
Sure, there might be things in the world that are objectively good or bad. But it is up to us whether we have good or bad thoughts in regards to these...
It would be a good thought the person is having. But, from our perspective, it would be a bad thought. We would have bad thoughts about this person's ...
Yes, I would take into consideration into whatever these falsehoods are. However, I am currently unaware of these falsehoods. Therefore, feel free to ...
Never mind then. I will just wait for someone else to fully read and respond to it. This logical argument fully explains the concepts I am presenting....
When you, for example, look at nature, then all the information of the trees, rivers, etc. is flowing through your brain. The moment you get a positiv...
But I think emotions would still be a sense even though it is a different mechanism than sight. So, just because thoughts make us feel certain emotion...
For example, when you feel excited over a new video game or movie, that is a state of euphoria caused by a certain thought. That thought was, again, t...
But my theory is that these higher emotions you are talking about do not give a person's life any real perception of value. I have a logical argument ...
I will add one last thing here. From there, I will present a logical argument that attempts to support my view. Let me know when you are ready to read...
From your post, we can gather that the one horse with the rational and moral impulse would be what we call the higher emotions. The second horse would...
All they can do is just wait and try things to help them recover their positive emotions even though doing said things cannot be perceived as having a...
Who would want to live a life that has no actual perceived good value and worth? That would be a no quality standard of living since there would be no...
According to this effect chart, negative expressions, thoughts, and tones reflect negative emotions while positive expressions, thoughts, and tones re...
But do you agree that emotions are the only way we can perceive value in our lives? That's where my theory was getting at. I'm also not sure why putti...
Positive emotions, also referred to as "euphoria," are states of mind induced by the biochemicals in the brain (i.e. serotonin, dopamine, endorphins, ...
I'm not sure what you're not understanding. If a person judges himself as having the ability to see when he is blind, then he would still not be able ...
But that's only because of our wiring. We are wired to believe in this false version of value just like how religious people are wired to believe in t...
It doesn't matter even if you thought that the apple was good to you during a negative emotional state; you still would not be able to actually see th...
Actually, it would be like sight and hearing. There are objects and sound waves out there. But the only way we can perceive them would be through sigh...
I am saying that our emotions possess intrinsic qualities of beauty, joy, good, bad, and suffering that gives our lives a real perceptual quality of t...
