These folks may 'feel' but it's possible many aren't feeling much at all. Some antidepressants/mood stabilizers CAN effectively mute feeling. & some ppl don't need drugs to NOT 'feel'. So I wouldn't consider 'feeling' 2 b automatic. IMO, depends on the person & their brain chemistry. There r ppl who 'go through the motions'-who MIMIC what they can't 'feel'. ('borderlines' & some ppl w/serious mental disorders). After all, the inability to empathize is a common trait of a serial killer.

I hate to b a smartass, but--oh god...w/all this analysis. Some r takin this wayyyy too literally & missin the point. For one, if it were possible to eliminate 'emotion' they wouldn't need drugs. Two, listen--Bale increased his dosage after his wife died, his kids felt 'something' after their mom died which made them stop taking their dose--and even the brotha discussed increasing HIS dosage. This was plainly stated in the movie. So, yeah--of course they feel. Why the debate...?

But why do they respect him, do they feel/believe that what that person is saying is worthy of "his" respect.

Also thinking is feeling and feeling is thinking...
e.g. "I think i'll have a chocolate ice cream, Why did that person decide to have a chocolate ice cream?" did he feel like having chocolate ice cream rather then vanilla ice cream.

He embodies an idea that they percieve to be a good one. In the case of Libea, this is soley through cognitive deduction, not intuition, thanks to prozium. Thus, they think that he's worthy of respect.

Thinking and feeling are seperate things. Thinking is a very concious action, feeling is not.

They FEEL! that he's worthy of their respect.

Thinking is a concious process leading to a phsycal action, feeling is the origin of that persons thoughts which leads to his actions.
It's called freewill.

READ THIS AGAIN MAN!
"I think i'll have a chocolate ice cream", Why did that person decide to have a chocolate ice cream? did he feel like having chocolate ice cream rather then vanilla ice cream?

I think the only feeling they have in the movie is the bodily craving which causes thinking. Emotions on the other hand are non-existent in the movie.

they applauded out of fear and fear is an emotion.

This is a movie about a dystopian society. I don't know what you're trying to prove in your statement about emotions and etc. It's like the book "Brave New World" or the movie "Gattaca".
