They can, but they don't have to, so it's not inevitable.
- Apocryphon 15y agoDon't they have to? Isn't everyone irrational to some extent? I mean it may be as little or minor as believing one economic/political theory over another in the absence of clear evidence. Or betting on string theory over another explanation.
- ignifero 15y agoMaking a random decision in the absence of empirical evidence is rational thinking. It's irrational to make it in the presence of overwhelming evidence or counter evidence.
- khafra 15y agoCognomancers, at this point, will attempt to restate what they mean by "irrational" without using it or any close synonyms. They might also try to figure out if religiosity is correlated with greater levels of whatever they mean by "irrationality," or not.
