I am trying hard to think of an occasion where emotion should be used to make a moral decision. Morality is the parameter you set for yourself. Public morality is another thing. Its parameters are set by majority rule.
Why would emotion be needed to justify limits you yourself have determined? If your morality conflicts with public morality, the moral majority will decide whose parameters to allow.
No emotion needed. No emotion involved.

which is the source of concious thought?
IMO our feelings give us thoughts, our fears form our behaviors, our need to socialize form our ability to communicate, our desire to be accepted and fear of isolation due to our actions, cause us to create euphenisms to explain ourselves (look up euphenism - you really neeed to use this word!!)
so, emoition is what causes our moral decisions
2+2= 4 is NOT a moral judgement , this is an objective truth
2 more deaths after the first 2 deaths is a subjective and moral judgment (2 more dead cockroach, two more dead babies, two more dead peices of legisltation - depends
keep an open mind and you can do this!!
