I know for a fact I have emotions, I can hypothesize that you have emotions based on the way you behave but I don't know that for a fact and never will. For all I know I'm the only conscious being in the universe. * > and other animals as well, have complex brain structure that has > developed over 500 million years, to further procreation in multicellular > life.* > Even 500 million years ago when the first multicellular animals evolved they behaved as if they had the emotion of lust, and also anger and its opposite fear, hence the fight or flight response. But it took another 500 million years for true intelligence to evolve. Emotion is easy, intelligence is hard.
