You may not always like what the scientific method tells you but you favor the methodology itself. At least, that's what the brain researchers say. In fact, they say it is physiologically impossible for us to process anything purely by logic. Our brains are not wired to do that.
What does that word mean, then? You're playing a definitions game here - saying that because you think no one can be completely rational, all decisions are therefore equally irrational. That is not the case: some views are more correct and therefore lead to better outcomes than incorrect ones. Dragging one's interactions with the world into total abstraction does nothing to speak to whether a belief practically makes sense and leads to good and rational decisions. That's what's fundamentally important with why delusion is so harmful.
