Honestly, I don't like it because, if I come to the conclusion that I'm thinking type, I have to admit that I'm some sort of miser with giving to charities, etc. If I come to the conclusion that I'm feeling type, I have to admit that I'm illogical, weak critical thinker, etc. I don't like either conclusion. But you're right - there are probably several factors that are conflated that's causing it. My theory:
1) You either like giving to charities or you don't.
2) If you give, you either give in a rational/calculated way, or you do not.
- I like giving, but I prefer to give in a way that is calculated - having certain principles of giving, limits to what I give, etc.
Those two are probably conflated and cause a problem...
I also can't come to a conclusion, because, at the back of my mind, I feel that anything is possible - "in principle, even some of the best theories can be overturned." That makes it very hard to come to a solid conclusion.
