What I mean by feelings is that we base our decisions on how we feel about something. You can logically go through all the arguments and read up on all the historical records but in the end it either feels right or it feels wrong. Einstein couldn't accept certain theories because his feelings where telling him that they were wrong and through that he went against what was 'known' and came up with his own answers with his equations.

Some people will go against what they feel is right because logic tells them otherwise and this can cause conflicts and lack of congruence.
