Emotion and Intelligence
Every living-being in this universe is bound to emotions. Emotions play a major role in binding you to your fellow being. Emotions play a major role in your decision making. I am not going to talk about bigger concept of Emotional Intelligence in this post. Rather this is more towards how your emotions tapper or sharpen your intelligence in making decisions.
A small story :
There is a small fight between your wife and your neighbor. In this fight you know to the best possible limit that your wife is wrong. Ultimately your neighbor is right. If you are going to be judge for this fight and there is no third party witnessing this event. Whom do you support ?
My View :
More than eighty percentage of the men support their lady rather than the neighbor. It makes less sense for him to support the neighbor. I have seen parents fighting for their child with the teachers even though they know their kid is wrong.
What do you say ?

Everybody in this world have concentric circles of people with their priority decreasing as the distance increases (a Distant relative, not so close friend !!!). So we will and are bound to support a person who is closer to us in a conflict whether he is right or wrong. Even in case of wars between nations, we support our state even if we know very well that our state is doing a wrong. (for e.g. US soldiers in Iraq war).
There is nothing right or wrong in this world. It all depends on our perspective which in turn depends on the group in which we are.
