Question of the Day! by kickstart2006-11-19 12:23:33
  That people are basically logical. by Naruki2002-07-01 05:50:39
    Well by Caius2002-07-01 13:41:18
      There is nothing a reasonable person by Naruki 2002-07-01 13:53:35
cannot rationalize. Or almost nothing. Something like smoking cigarettes, for example. They can and do rationalize that all the time.

I am talking about a much more subconscious logical behavior, though. The conscious mind is hardly aware of all the factors involved in a particular decision, and the weights given to each factor, and the influence of still other factors on those weights.

So strict conscious reasoning can be grossly flawed due to improper weighting that is not considered at that level.

And, by the way, I do not.
