(October 17, 2014 at 4:21 pm)Rhythm Wrote: Rationality? I'd say yeah. What you've applied rationality to? I'd say no (as in that doesn't start and end in your brain.) In the same way, I can't load my kids into my idea of a car and drive them to Disney, for that, I need an actual car. Do actual cars exist and work in this universe? Yeah, but not because they are rational or can be described as such by me. What is rational refers to the behavior of a car in this universe, something is rational because of an observed behavior.

Reason is descriptive, not normative.
Fine, for now. Tongue I'll have to think that through a bit. I'm giving my brain a much needed rest (and going back to my philosophy book). Wink
