You missed my post about morality being the x-axis and logic being the y-axis.

People make moral, logical choices every day. For example: Your father is having a heart attack. Do you call 911?

Morally it is correct as you are trying to save a life.
Logically it is correct as he puts a roof over your head
Emotionally it is correct, as you love him.

I think you are tying emotion too closely to morality. Morality has to do with "right and wrong" and not so much with personal emotions.
