Whilst I agree with your sentiment to a degree tw I think "Emotion has no place in adult thinking." takes it too far. We are not vulcans. We are thinking, feeling creatures. To make decisions and reach conclusions based on no more than an emotional response may be less useful than reaching your decisions or conclusions via a logical and calm thought process, but that doesnt mean any decision opinion or response which has involved emotion is unworthy.

We are emotional animals and we are thinking animals. We can be emotional thinking animals and we can think rationally whilst still experiencing an emotional response....to discount al emotional responses in arguments is to discount passion. Politics and passion go hand in hand ....passionate debate is often the most thought provoking and illuminating
