Lomed Mkol Adam-
To your first point: It doesn’t say anywhere that the emotion of love is inherently good. A hammer can be used to build a shul and it can be used to build a church. The hammer is not inherently defined as something good or bad. What makes you say love is any different? It is not defined, it is inherently neither good nor bad, it is simply a part of the makeup of human nature that can “do” good or bad things.
you do agree that when used for good, these feelings are actually what makes the person be defined as someone “good” in nature
I do not. The actions are what make the person called a good person, not the feelings that brought them about. The feelings are undefined, as they could have easily brought about other actions as well.
To your second point: Why in the world would the Torah give us a mitzva to eat animals if killing an animal presents any kind of moral issue? That would not make sense to me. It would be as if the Torah said, in certain cases, shecht a person and eat him.
