Some people are more prone to be dictated by feelings.
The other part are more prone to be dictated by logic.
These groups will never agree!
Studies show people with brain injury unable to feel, are unable to make sound decisions (pure rational thought).
We know what happens when only feelings decide, that would wreck society overnight.
Luckily, the way our brain works. Intuition/feelings come first, and then we can rationalize and filter, based on logic!
- ekianjo 7y ago> The other part are more prone to be dictated by logic. you are right to say "prone to", because as a matter of fact what is happening with logic is usually to give ourselves a reason to fall back on what we believed in the first place. It's very hard to truly convince very rational people that they are wrong (most people don't switch opinions)

Also, there's a parallel comment thread that points out the research conclusions on which this meme is based might have been an effect of bad data processing.
