I would say hence out problem. Reason and science are critical during these time. Emotions only flame the fires of violence. Humor and sarcasm are also useful.

@JackPedigo Slow down, Jack. A bit of reason will tell you love is an emotion.

@yvilletom Really!? And therefore, it surpasses reality and science? Love is always right. or? My late partner the most loving realist many have known, had an expression "Discipline (reason) first then love." In the end emotions (love) is just the flow of chemicals.

@JackPedigo Love is an emotion. You added the rest.

@yvilletom Okay, and now the question, what is reason?

@JackPedigo I don’t agree with your Emotions only flame the fires of violence.

@yvilletom Violence is primarily based on emotion. Emotions of hatred, anger, revenge, jealousy, pride...need I go on. Often people who are informed and try to understand can overcome their violent emotional tendencies. I guess this will have to be another agree to disagree issue.

@yvilletom Funny, just after posting this I opened another link from this islands care provider. Emotions can literally kill you.

@JackPedigo The word “only” can be a damn nuisance.
