Generally, emotion is associated with Yin (receptive, internal) and reason is associated with Yang (active, external), though they constantly transform into one another.

Teleology from the Greek words telos (end/goal) and logia (study/reason) posits that processes are directed toward a purpose.

You are welcome to pick your side in this most dangerous confrontation in our lifetimes, but at least do your homework and listen to arguments from alternative views to get a complete understanding of what is really transpiring as we collectively race towards a global recession/depression…
