3) This is a can of worms I didn't expect from you. :o You're not a presuppositionalist, are you?
Rational thought is valid by definition. By 'rational thought', we means a means of argumentation that follows what we consider correct structure and inference rules. The acceptance of the 'validity' of rational thought is an axiom. One can [try and] reject it, but no one will take you seriously.
I'm not so sure about this. Rational thought is valid by definition IN THE CONTEXT of ideas which are validated by rational thought. There's a dangerous self-reference there that shouldn't be dismissed so readily.
