Excellent point, shakran, and it's the same sort of vibe I've gotten from a number of your posts, JinnKai--particularly the ones regarding control of emotions. Humans are emotional creatures--it's one of the reasons our bodies produce hormones. If we weren't meant to have feelings and emotions, we wouldn't produce the hormones that lead to these feelings/emotions.
I'm not a robot or a Vulcan. I'm a human.
