Logic VS Emotion: What is more important?

Question

MrMysteryMan · Accepted Answer

For me, both are important, but you can't really use both depending on circumstance and what is needed in what situation you are in. Logic doesn't really work well with things like love and emotional connections, so if you use pure logic to try and understand an emotional situation or feeling or reason, it won't work and won't make any sense. Visa versa as well. Or, sometimes you need to use a bit of logical reasoning mixed with your emotions to gauge something. If you use too much emotion, you can either get hurt or miss facts about a situation. This happens a lot with people in abusive relationships or when people are manipulated emotionally.

Logic. Logic just is. Logic properly applied takes into account everything, including emotions. Emotions on the other hand doesn't take into account logic.

For me it's logic. I mean doing things just forsake of your emotions might just make you fall in the wrong place. But instead of saying logic, I answered 'depends'. Why? Facts indeed doesn't have to do with feelings but some things needed emotions to work

Love < emotions.. emotions lead to love not love leads to emotions.. love is already a combination of several things together.. Emotions are what that define a human

JCD14 · Answer

Personally, it depends on the person's morals. Someone with faith as a large part of their lives, with a lot of belief, may feel more devoted to listen to their emotions. While, on the other hand, somebody who depends heavily on definitive facts, and solid information and evidence, may feel inclined to what seems most logical for the best outcome for any given situation. As for my own opinion, I find myself down the middle, if it's something that heavily involves my feelings, such as my love live, I may feel pressured to follow my emotions, but when I am on a more professional situation, such as my studies, the most logical solution may seem the best fit at that time...

Logic is important because without it we lack understanding and the chance of directed action. I would not see this as a dichotomy though - logic without emotion is not human and emotion without logic is madness or infanct.

sawno · Answer

Depends on the situation, neglecting your emotions can be dangerous to your sanity but when faced with a decision the logical one is always best in my eyes.

hellacray · Answer

Definitely logic. Logic solves problems. Emotions create problems.

That's why when starting a business they say never fall in love with an idea. Cause if it turns out it's not profitable you'll have to scrap it.

Logic - if you follow your heart then you will almost always get lost; if you follow your mind then you can see the path much more clearly.

Neither is useful entirely on its own. And the idea that they operate seperately is a myth.

Rangers · Answer

In general, logic is more important. The issue comes where almost everyone who thinks they're making logical decisions are really making decisions that are the exact opposite of logical.
