Because of this, we are judging this man’s actions only from our emotional perspective. Maybe, if we could create a world where people would never have to interact with or rely on other humans, things would work out better for Elliot than for the rest of us. We’re looking at this case from a very biased perspective.

In my opinion, emotions are the equivalent of a computer routine or a macro that go into action under certain circumstances (there is an example in an earlier thread where a cat ends up mothering ducklings). Thinking things out takes too long (like when a lion is about to tear you apart). Thinking is a good set of brakes for some emotions, but alone, like brakes with no car, it’s sort of useless.
