    Why should you have a roof over your head? If emotions are irrelevant, what’s the difference between that and being homeless?

      Survival. The emotions are ultimately just crude tools the brain and body have for promoting the survival of the person.

      Their crudeness is probably best illustrated with phobias.

        If emotions are irrelevant, why survive? Why not lie down and die? You say it’s not your fear of death or your love of life. Is it some form of worship of the purpose evolution has given you? That sounds emotional to drag.
