The Thinkers versus The Feelers

Is this the battle that is ongoing around us?  A letter writer to the AnalPhilosopher ponders just this question. From the letter.

"As I fast approach my 60th year I cannot help but reflect upon our apparent agreement that there is a struggle between Thinkers and Feelers. More important is whether this has been an eternal struggle or is it now reaching critical mass. Likely all who have walked upright age with the notion that the succeeding generation is heading in the wrong direction. But in MY last quartile of life I seem to be bombarded with more and more proof that the feelers are winning . . . and we have reached a point of no return. Hence a constant struggle against depression ensues. I guess I seek some perspective, some rational evidence that I am wrong."

    How about writing a letter on a computer and sending it to a weblog on a global computer network? Reports of the sky falling are thrilling but premature.
