“No, not energy. Emotion.”

Nice try. Either you do not know how to write an equation or you are a bullshitter; but I suspect both.

If — in your formula — E is emotion; what is e? The two elements we were discussing are emotion and spirituality, which you have expressed mathematically as “… spirituality is a function of emotion, or e = f(s).” Thus, since those are the only two elements (emotion and spirituality), addressed, “e “ must necessarily refer to “emotion” and “s” must necessarily refer to “spirituality. “

So, if e = f(s), then we can simply replace f(s) with e; as, per your equation, f(s) is equal to, or has the same value as e.

You then trot out this absurd formula: f[f(s) = e] = E. Since you have already stated that f(s) = e, your equation can also be written as f(e = e) = E. Since f (e = e) is the same as f (e), your equation is reduced to f (e) = E. Or, written out, the function of e is equal to (the same as) E. Or, E = E. And you have now – per your above comment – defined E as “Emotion.” Applying your singular logic, you are saying the function of emotion is – get this! – Emotion; or that Emotion is Emotion. In other words, you’ve said nothing.

I’m done with your games.

Peddle your snake oil somewhere else.

Your method here is distraction and distortion. Means you have nothing.

But the fact remains: your beliefs, all of them, come from emotion.
