so a person lacking empathy isn't human?
i think that all people feel and have human emotions, even people who lack empathy. those people choose to supress and hide their emotions so much that they can not express them, or relate to other people. they have secluded themselves from humanity. i think the more you hide your emotions, the more they control you. when you ignore something that is so ingrained and part of human nature, it may create problems and lots of barriers with yourself and others.
