Emotion is not just a biological process but an [b]experience[/b].

How did this experience begin in nature?

There is the experience and the one experiencing. Are they one and the same?

Emotions are chemical reactions that have complex-ed interactions.. Take for example as my friend listed above Fear..

Emotions must have a stimulus.. The stimilus trigger a chemical production than in turns affects the brain and cells.

If Fear case the stimulus is threat or danger. Then certain chemicals are produced one such being adrenalin, which allows you to better defend yourself and be more reactive better fo0r self preservation..

FOr the Evolution path, emnotions developed over a period of timebase on 2 primary characteristics.  Self Preservation and reproduction.

just because YOU DONT UNDERSTAND OR KNOW THIS doesn't me we dont and isn't proof of creation!!

You still don't get it do you?  There is 'fear' (the experience) and animal (the one experiencing)

I don't think you are getting it. Fear is a reaction to stimuli. Think about the phrase "the only thing to fear is fear itself". Fear on its own doesn't exist.
[/quote]

The reaction is a physical movement such as running away. Fear as an emotion is not material but it is real and the experiencer is feeling it. So my question is, who is the one experiencing the emotion? Does he/she evolve? Are you your emotions?

Original Message Does love and joy come gradually?

Ahhh, and 'who' or 'what' is EXPERIENCING those emotions?

Does 'who' or 'what' evolve?

If you assume everything came from evolution, then you need to give an answer for where the non-physical things came from!
