Lack of Rationality

Lack of rationality is one of the many things that the world lacks, and desperately needs to survive. How many problems could have been averted by rational thinking? How many problems would just be unfathomable with a good scoop of rational thinking? I'm not talking intelligence here. Just understanding that if A+B=C and C+D=B then A+B+D=B. Understanding that if you think of something it must be able to stand up to scrutiny. If you declare the world is flat and somebody says its a sphere, you better have the ability to prove you're right and admit you're wrong.

Relationships between men and women wouldn't be so insane. You wouldn't hear stories of guys sneaking off with other women or women sneaking off with other men. They would rationally make sure it was understood what each others intentions were before hand. Politics would be simpler. Does said political thing work? If not then what will? Maybe if it worked then it can work now, or maybe it won't work now. Either way if it fails you must admit that it did.

Then again you can rationally create lies in the order of self interest. Yet that would not support a healthy society in order to gain the self interest in the first place so you might not be able to declare that lies are rational if there exists a rational world that can understand you.

However, if the world was rational, you really couldn't have the enjoyment of the stupid, the irrational, and the just plain crazy.
