Yes, there is. Humans are alive, they survived the evolution and they used intuition much more frequently then rationality. Logic was invented by greeks less then 3k years ago and before there was no way for rationality to exist. Intuiton does works in most cases. It is the apparent fact.
- whybroke 10y agoVery sensible point. But I would emphasize that in order to justify the value of intuition in this case, you had to resort to reason as well as anthropology and evolutionary biology. That last one in particular most especially is the product of rational empiricism. So again it appears we can only trust intuition if we can rationally prove that trust is justified.
