There is a choice everyone makes, whether knowingly or unknowingly. We either accept that there is such a thing as objective truth outside of ourselves, or we buy into the false belief that we are the sole, arbitrary authors of truth ourselves. This, I think, is at the root of a lot of the lunacy and mental illness going on in our society.
The Truth, strictly speaking, is not a viewpoint, an opinion, etc. It is Someone, namely Jesus, Who said, "I am the way, the TRUTH, and the life." If we do not acknowledge that there is an objective, unchanging TRUTH outside of ourselves, then we have lost touch with reality and will most surely end up in the mental ditch that we see so many poor unfortunate souls in.
With regard to emotions, yes, every human being has emotions (assuming they're normal). But our emotions must be subjugated to our intellect, not the other way around! We must make decisions in our intellect, otherwise, we're skating on really thin ice!
The morality of our country has been purposely undermined by those wishing to destroy our country and way of life. They have gotten control over our education system, our media, and much of our government. We are at a tipping point, I think. If this is not reversed, we will end up with tyranny, losing our freedom and our way of life. Pray, pray, pray.
