Emotional feelings and moral statements generate scientific knowledge
Abstract
The logical empiricism and rationalism predominant epistemology highlights that only descriptive and empirical premises deduce valid true conclusions. Rejecting all moral and emotional statements to express some desire, because which are impossible to assess as true. Nevertheless, the purpose of the present manuscript was to demonstrate that moral statements and emotions generate valid conclusions and help understand the world. A qualitative procedure was followed, analyzing the epistemological premises, and showing their argumentative limitations. The results showed that by fully assuming premises, even if they are evaluative, enunciative of wishes and/or prescriptive, viable conclusions are obtained. Likewise, it was found that emotions such as intuition and sympathy work together to produce knowledge. Thus, determining that moral arguments and emotions deduce viable conclusions of knowledge.
