If people were 100% rational, would the world be better?
RE: If people were 100% rational, would the world be better?
Great post. In post-modern terms, absurdism rejects any and all Grand Naratives...a sentiment I share. My current thinking is that rather that striving for certainty of belief contents, I am inclined to ask if the process by which a belief is gained was done so was virtueous regardless of content.
