In fact many would consider "feeling bad" to be the opposite of "feeling happy". That is why I don't cling to pain or force myself to nurture a feeling of disgust.
I realize some people love to suffer and cherish being a victim. They are the ones who are happy when they are feeling bad or in pain. But I think those people are pathetic.
Of course one doesn't feel happiness in the exact moment of feeling unhappiness. However, life is not live in any single moment, but rather an accumulation of them. You can feel angry and disgusted while watching the Bengals on a Sunday afternoon, yet perfectly happy the rest of the week. Again sir, these are not contradictory propositions.
As to your second paragraph, I find it very distasteful to refer to people as pathetic because they may experience things differently than you. In fact sir, I think I'll end our discussion here as it seems you have not taken my advice at all and are continuing with the same fallacious arguments in which the conclusions are flawed because of poorly formed premises.
