Emotion is a force that changes the landscape OF LIFE!!!!! A complex form of technology you should be thankful for in one form or another. You are something.. Not part of it, you are SOMETHING... One hell of a question man, I had to drift off into the left side of my brain to think of that one...

I'm not as sure of this as you seem to be.
I've had animals, dogs and cats, that have showed tremendous emotion.

Emotion is how we're controlled by our media; it's how we first feel the spark of something greater than ourselves, or what we think is love anyway. Later when we feel the real, non chemical/hormonal, True Love of Heart, only then, do we have a chance to find ourselves.

Emotion is what drives most of us; regardless of what we may think.

What else can both blind and allow us to see?

IMHO, there is only one true emotion and from this all others spring: L O V E.
