I think its because I am my own worst critic, even though I know I often give 100% in everything. The pressure of wanting to succeed often gets to me but I strive through hehe

Lucriu is smart. I hope someone measures up to his intelligence and is able to answer his question to his satisfaction.

fuk it, i know i'm not supposed to post on the capz only thread, but fuk it.
i see no contradictions in you, all i see is that you allow your logic to supersede emotions., which supersedes your true inner wants.

There is no absolute correct answer.

Ok, Capinc tried to view the question in a different way and has given his input but he also has FAILED.

*This thread, right now*
Alright, let's take a stab at this.
-Serious with a sense of humour
-allow your logic to supersede emotions, which supersedes your true inner wants
Cap is the sign with the cold exterior, the ultra logical rock on which other people lean but at the same time their inner emotions are volatile and maybe one of the warmest once they open up to you. They even have a hilariously funny side if you can crack them.
And for being so stiff on the outside they are also remarkably flexible dancers. 😛

Stop teasing us and tell us your answer!

Posted by StillWater
Fine, I'll give it a try.
Caps are contradictions because we act cold on the outside even though internally we want to be warm and loving. We act cold to filter through people because we are not sure if they are deserving of our ultimate dedication. Because we know just how much we can give to people, we do not give it away to just anyone. Hence, we end up pushing people away while what we really want is unconditional love.

bro...i can't be going through 100 messages just to find the key to your lil door. OK?!
We are contradictions because we are able to separate areas of our lives into different categories. So we can be one way with one thing but another way with another? BLAH!

You know I have a million things on my mind. 😢
And I have memory issues...(I thought I told you?)

Happy Birthday.
Thank you CC! 🙂click to expand

I'll give another try. We appear confident to others, but inside we are timid and insecure.

Out of all the signs in the zodiac, Capricorns pride themselves the most in their ability to be logical.
Ask any Capricorn if they believe they are logical or emotional, and how they deal with their emotions,
and they??ll say they are logical and that they ??rationalize, try to understand, etc..?? their emotions.
But logic tells us that there is no logic.
Logic, reasoning, inference. All are empty words trying to describe the impossible. The ability to look
at the universe as anything other than ??chaotic.??
This is due to the Observer Effect. (please google if you dont know what it is)
Our perception affects outcomes, and thus nothing really IS, untill it is seen and experienced.
Before technology could prove this with the 2 slit photon experiment Socrates illustrated it with
??I only know that I know nothing.??
If the simplest action (a photon passing through a slit) cannot be predicted by ??logic??.
If one of the greatest philosophers of our time admited that ??knowledge?? is obtainable only
in knowing that nothing can be known.
Isn't the logical conclusion of logics existance, that logic does not exist?
Is there anyone among us that can arrogantly say that they know their wife/husband fully,
to know what a rational action is to one of their smile or one of their slaps?
We are a walking contradiction because logic tells us that we will never have all the necessary
information to make rational choices (they are an illusion), and that only the arrogant can claim rationality,
and yet we choose to be logical irrationally. Because of this, everytime we act, feel, or believe we are
being rational, we contradict ourselves.
This is why I believe that only actions based on emotion are genuine... but more on that later. = )
I agree and I knew this BUT I don't think this is specific to Caps. This is about logic.click to expand

Ahh... so.. kind of like how there is no such thing as an objective truth? Cause what we consider "objective" or "fact" is really just a collection of similar, subjective experiences?


Posted by StillWater
I think emotions can also be just as deceptive as logic. 🙂

Posted by StillWaterPosted by MellyMel909
But since emotions are not rational, they are actually highly logical. Since logic states that logic does not exist and emotions are void of logic.
I'm completely talking outta my ass, btw 😛
Does void of logic confirm that there is logic though?
For instance void of happiness, does that mean it is sadness?
Not necessarily.click to expand

I dont, wanna argue? 😉
Sure.
Emotions depend on state of being and that state of being depends on the way we make sense of the information (hence our own senses which is not complete and all-knowledgeable).
Since state of being can be inaccurate, emotions can also be inaccurate.
If we ever want to speak of universal truths, all complete and encompassing, it would have to be divine connection and understanding for which the only language is love. Love does not automatically translate into emotions.
Emotions is only one of the many ways to express love.click to expand

You're mixing up rationality and logic.
One is making the best possible choice, the other how we order the world. Two completely different things.
The ultra rational bastard Immanuel Kant would actually argue that it doesn't matter what you do. Because you actually don't know what is best. For that you would need perfect knowledge.
And as humans, we don't have that.
All we have is preferences and that's where emotions come in.
But even emotions can be changed, 'trained' so to say. And differently trained persons will react differently. We all know examples of things in life we would have responded differently to if we knew what we know now.

Once you surpass the emotions of "hurt, pain, etc", you can be alleviated to a higher consciousness of understanding.

That is what make emotions so TRUE. Logic would like to have you believe that action a + scenario B will always equal reponse C. To believe that there is a RIGHT response for an action, and that that can be based on LOGIC absurd.

Watch A clockwork orange.... Humans that are ??trained?? to feel emotions are robbed of their humanity. And Tiger cap... you would only know what you know now if you responded in the exact same way in order to achieve that realization of a better way to act, so your ??rationalization?? is flawed.
We can say the same thing about rationalization, that a man can be trained to believe something is real and act upon that THOUGH. ANY religion is an example of this. Believing in god is IRRATIONAL in anyway, yet billions of people have been ??trained?? to believe, and act upon, something that can't be seen or measured.click to expand

Logic:
1. The study of the principles of reasoning, especially of the structure of propositions as distinguished from their content and of method and validity in deductive reasoning.
2.
a. A system of reasoning
b. A mode of reasoning
c. The formal, guiding principles of a discipline, school, or science.
3. Valid reasoning
Or put in another way; They are similar but not interchangeable. You can be perfectly logical without being rational.
"In real life, rational people are also the people who are perceived as being very reasonable. They are also considered intelligent as they are able to see both the emotional, as well as the logical side of an argument."

True, then again only mathematics is truly logical. It has nothing to do with morality.
Only rationality can tell us what is probably the best response to the situation considering everything we know thus far.

That's true as well. There is no way to test that right now. Probably never.
But we do have hindsight, realizing we could have done it differently and better.
Do you know how they used to rationalize god?
"If you believe and he doesn't exist, you don't lose anything, but if you don't believe and he does exist, you lose big time." - Pascal's Wager
It was the best possible choice at the time.click to expand
