How to control yourself.

You people are not reading what I said, I don't have any, I have never felt emotions, and I don't need them.

Thank you Chiron. lol
It is extremely difficult to pretend not to have emotion, the level of indifference and apathy coupled with genuine desire is a serious mental disorder. I suggest you think twice about the way you feel right now, don't confuse lack of excessive or hyper emotion for no emotion at all.

You need emotion because you need to feel all the bad to feel that good

You can't feel joy or happiness without sadness and anger so you need them and that's the end of it and everyone has them even if you deny them

Well, the point of the whole post wasn't to start a conversation about emotion, so that whole thing was useless.

No one got my Jedi joke? :(
Seriously though I'm curious where this comes from? I'm not familiar with any religion or philosophy that completely denies emotion.

That quote was from Star Wars? I thought it was Taoist. Looks like George Lucus had a little inspiration from Asian culture! =)

"Looks like George Lucus had a little inspiration from Asian culture!"

Actually it was mythologist Joseph Campbell who was much of his inspiration, but yes, a lot of Taoism made its way through. The Campbell influence is actually why I'll let Jediism slide and consider it a valid religion.

Jediism, I like that, I'm going to steal that.

Interesting Chiron, thanks for the info.
