if anything think itself is not capable of knowing an answer, it create it own personal disease, LACK OF "GOOD REASONING", AS NOW ALL SELF ONLY FIND "GOOD REASONS" WHY SELF NEED EXCELL OR MOVE TO MORE???

if better reasoning is not based on HAPPINESS, then self hath before itself a long road of misery???

only something as FALSE IN THE BRAIN, can lead self to a FALSE HAPPINESS, ONE THAT SELF MUST CONVICE ITSELF EXIST EACH DAY TO MOVE FORWARD???

the human brain has the amazing ability to remind itself anytime self pass a "line of truth", THAT SELF HAS DULY RECOGNIZED AND EMBRACED AS GOOD TRUTH OF ITSELF???

it is too bad that self hate to see what is less of itself, as this only LEAVE ONE OPTION OF WHAT SHALL BE CREATED, MORE OF THE SAME!!!

PERFECT REASONING reside in ALL THINGS HUMANS, when false belief is removed, MOST THE FALSE BELIEF THAT IF SELF SEE IT'S OWN "LESS GOOD REASONING", IT IS A BAD THING, when indeed it is the ONLY PATH TO BRIALLIANCE AND PERFECT REASONING!!!

I prefer the unreasonable life.

..that way there are not "reasons" for one's inadequacies.



Just be it!

Well I think a caveat here is that as humans we tend to convince ourselves we understand something with or without reason, and are often wrong.

It never ceases to fail me. It is one aspect of experience. Reason implie the conotation of being sound or worthy of building other ideas, however it is relative and sometimes when encountered with something new reason fails us. Reason is a set of rules for operating in a particular environment, this changes with considersation of socail factors, personal interpretaion and a host of other influences. Reason also mediates emotional responces but can also cause them. I guess im using my defintion if you want to provide a clearer defintion maybe i can better awnser the question.

I agree. Reason can not fathom the unknowable. There are two sides to life, the side we can talk about (the tonal) and the other side.

Perhaps unreasonable crazy people understand the world, yet no one really listens to them. I see it all the time in movieslaugh drinker

I agree strongly with the OP, and with Bushido.

There are many unrelated-to-reason experiences, like love, caring, empathy, appreciation of natural beauty or art (all of which can also be effected by reason...) which are, for me, a large part of 'understanding' the world.

But just because 'understanding' requires something beyond reason, doesn't mean that the unreasonable have a better understanding.
