Emotional actions and responses are tied to
Consequential Value, wherein the things that are of the greatest consequence, generate the greatest emotional response, such as for instance the difference between the emotional reaction in relation to the death of a loved one compared to the death of a stranger. A direct correlation can be made between the type and degree of Consequence and emotional response.
Conversely Extra Mundane Authorities and Metaphysical Ideals such as God, perfection, freedom, equality prosperity or property may be associated with positive emotions such as love, affection, reverence, glory or devotion. The greater the degree of consequential import, the greater is the probability of emotional intensity. Human emotions may be exploited by the manipulation of Consequential Value for the purpose of accomplishing ends such as religious, economic and political tools. Organizational and institutional campaigns by private groups or governments, may orchestrate emotional reactions by the manipulation of Consequential Value for purposes such as promoting religion, selling commodities or producing hate campaigns. Institutionalized emotional violence against specific groups can produce horrendous results and are examples of how Conceptual Evil is used as a political tool.
Metaphysical Ideals affects, influences and directs emotional response such as hate and love. Examples of the Antithetical Matrix could be things like the devil, Evil, lust, communism, capitalism, paganism, racial characteristics or inferior character traits, such that when the emotion of hatred is associated, negative emotional characteristics are created.
Other worldly entities, such as ghosts and goblins, where these entities are believed to be real, and where it can be said they affect real and actual events, are often associated with Evil.
