Compassion and Greed
Love and Hate are words that can describe many different degrees of emotion.
Compassion .... if we do not recognize suffering, we cannot help others in need. I don't have to have love for someone to be compassionate towards them, and I have compassion for everyone in need.
Greed for land, power, control, money, life, religion, is the most destructive emotion. Greed causes indifference, indifference is the enemy of compassion.

Good question.
I think the answer for both is fear. The way I see it, fear is the root emotion that is the basis for all the others. Love can be seen as a reaction to the fear of losing something treasured. Anger/hate is a protective reaction to feared objects. Despair is a paralytic reaction when we don't think we can solve or evade the things we fear. And so forth. This is a thought I just had, so it isn't all fleshed out yet. But you get the idea.
I think that fear becomes dangerous when it is irrational, reacting to an imagined threat instead of a real one. When it is rational, fear is a great survival mechanism and motivation for problem solving.

Love is the most important. It has inspired the best songs, poems and actions. Humans can do unthinkable things for love. Love is the feeling that keep the world going on.
The most destructive feeling would be hate. Hate is just about as strong as love, and generates anger, selfishness and envy.

Hatred is the most destructive emotion, for sure. If everyone thinks an eye for an eye, the whole world will go blind.
On the other hand, love would neutralise everything and make the world wonderful again. =)

The most important emotion to human is the Love ofcourse, whether you take is mother's love, your wifey's love or your kid's love. In my views mother' love is the emotion which can never be duplicated.
Most destructive emotion is Anger, You will start working from your heart than brain when you are angry, though when we say we do it thru heart, it means a part of our brain only which is responsible for anger, love affection etc.
But there are two different things, when you are in love with your mom, wife, kids etc. then also your brain works along with it, I mean the part of brain which is responsible for good thinking, which is called Medula Auomblageta, along with the part which is for emotions. but when you are angry, you one part of brain works, which is for emotions, and then you will stop thinking whether you are saying right or wrong. you will be literally blind.
so these r emotions I assume.

love and compassion are the most important. hate is destructive, but the one that people cant handle is indifference. you can pretend that it doesnt bother you, but deep down it does and you cant get away from it. everyone wants to be needed and loved, when someone dislikes or hates you, you know where you stand. the other is a whole different story.

emotions can cover a wide area of feelings that can be good or bad.
Our emotions get railed up or down when we are being miss treated by someone abusing us. so our emotions get weakened and hurt.
being abused emotionally is the most hurtful and destructive that can crush a heart for a life time.
A lot of people of all raices, women, children and men too are being emotionally abused. Those who have been cut down, made fun of, cursed out, mocked, belittled, stepped on, ridiculed, down graded, all of the things that are said to hurt the victim, crushes them so bad it hurts them from the inside out, in the deepest part of the heart and mind. NO ONE DESERSES TO BE ABUSED BY NO ONE.!!!!!!!
ABUSERS ARE LOSERS AND SHOULD STOP ABUSING.....WE ALL DESERVE RESPECT FROM ALL PEOPLE NO MATTER WHAT!!!!!!!!!
ABUSE IS A CRIME!!!!!!!!!

i think the most important emotion we have is that we care for others and want to help if needed.....and one of the worst is jealousy or greediness....caring for others is good and shows we do care about people that are around us and things that happen to them....greediness and jealousy just destroy and ruins even the person that is greedy and jealous of others..

Pain, or reaction to bad stuff like heat, and cut flesh. Its definitely a good survival instinct.
