Do we expect too much from human reason?

[Cato]

My argument is that we're unlikely to move this inquiry forward while we keep stubbornly doing the same thing over and over expecting different results.

How long did it take before the Earth was no longer considered the center of the universe? The fact that people reason poorly is not an indictment of reason, let alone a basis for abandoning it.

Why do you ignore widely published statistics bearing out that those disavowing god claims are in the ascendancy? Is this not demonstration of moving the inquiry forward?

Pray tell, what is an inquiry for if not to understand? The suggestion that an inquiry is something else comes across as fatuous.
