And, if so, how do 'rational' and 'high body count' fit together????
1.It seems ārationalā for a system of belief be just that, based on reason and logic. It just seems that that relationship should be a part of the human condition. After all, we are known scientifically as Homo sapiensā¦..which translates to āman the wise.ā
Of course it should go without saying that the above pertains to adults, not children. Itās just that we run into a problem in contemporary America in that the dominant political party infantilizes its adherents. Imagine actual adults believing that their party will take care of them from cradle to grave, and they have nothing to give upā¦.well, except for freedom, liberty and the right to make their own decisions.
And.....when obedience is the coin of the realm......how to accomplish one's own survival?
This is where ārationalā comes in.
2. But today, a most specific consideration of rational, as it pertains to religion. That dominant political party goes far out of its way to ridicule, marginalize, and de-legitimize religion. And by religion, I donāt mean the ersatz version substituted by the Left, the worship of man himself, and the collectivization of man, what we call government. This faux religion, Militant Secularism, projects its desire to be considered a real religion by draping itself in a number of religious trappings.
For example, they refer to their candidates as god, Jesus or the messiah. They kneel as one might in church..

3. From the perspective of history, the religion of the Founders, the Judeo-Christian faith, was the reason for the success of Western Civilization, while the āreligionā of the Left gave us the French Revolution, the Bolsheviks and the Nazis, all of which resulted in piles of bodies.
See where ārationalā might fit in to judging a belief system?

I shouldnāt have to point out that replacing the olā time religion with science and reason is why the French Revolution resulted in an abattoirā¦ā¦that means āslaughter house.ā As did every other movement with that basis.
After all, science might tell us what we can do.....
......but not what we should do.
