Hey Josh!
Personally speaking, I prefer this topic over the previous one,since I'm very curious about emotions and many other related concepts! (Not saying that your previous topic was not attractive haha)
But I don't quite get the last question. Can we be intelligent through our emotions? Or do you want to address that since the concept of being intelligent comes with reason, the idea of emotional intelligence is contradictory?
Anwyay great topic! It inspired me a lot.
