Love is irrational, and that makes man irrational. Easy to understand, really.
Wow! It may very well be irrational, does that make it invalid? It is irrational to put myself in danger to save a baby from the traintracks, does that mean I ought not do it? The moral law in humanity tells us innately we should, and guilt comes when we rest safely and watch the baby expire. There has never a culture existed in which it was noble to run away in battle, rationality be damned.
