Quote:We are all extremely rational, since we all act according to what we accept as facts.
You're leaving out all the irrational behaviour then?
Quote:Except for the existence of God, every single thing a theist does in his daily life, from social interactions to operating machines like cars or Ipods to using our senses are ALL motivated and calculated rationally.
There are many things anyone does that is irrational. Whenever we lose our temper over something when we know that it is more rational to keep a calm state of mind, we are irrational (for example). Emotions are often irrational. Their resulting behaviours are often irrational.
Quote:believing in God is a small irrationality.
A sky-daddy is a big irrationality, and when you go further than deism and are a theist, e.g, a Christian, Muslim or Jew, you accept a load of other related irrational beliefs.
