If irrationality is completely vented and exhausted, the rational mind can think at an utomost clarity for a while.
This is relative to other forms of repressed human nature, example:
If a person was very sexually aroused, they could not think clearly antil they vented that volume of psycological attribute.
If youâd like to test my theory: go completely & shamelessly insane for however long you can stand, antil youâre utterly sick of stupidity â and then within the aftermath of such a phase, you may find yourself more rationally clear/capable.
Or it could be like a muscle, getting bigger and more powerful and more bulgey the more you use it. Conversely, your rationality muscle gets weaker if you exercise your irrationality muscle to the exclusion of your rationality muscle.
I ask again, since you seem to have missed it: does it work for you?
Suppose that you logically & rationally knew that sexually transmitted diseases existed and humanity was over-populating the earth⌠& you were really horny at the same time.
Each time a feeling goes against a long-term understanding â One of them is basically âstupidâ.
Repressing stupidity is not the answer. IMO release of it, and understanding of it are the answer. âStupidityâ & irrationality should be delt with in the same fashion as anger is delt with.
Dan, when you went on to say that we have to let loose our irrationality and stuff, I couldnât help but remember those musical samples you offered some time ago. Cloon cheeser and polio max, I think they were called. Those were hilarious, really, especially the one featuring belching as a special sound effect. I usually donât laugh by my self, in my intimacy, but those got me on the ground.
Now, I realise that you probably worked and toiled on them for some time, thus involving a great deal of rationality, but for the occasional listener they seem just so incredibly mad, as like wanting to prove your point.
You are, indeed, the perfect incarnation of your theoryâŚ
