Freedom Through Irrationality Ability To Be Rational Duty
971 words
I believe rationality is incorrectly dictated by
society. Generally when one is irrational he or
she is contradicting the "normal" or what everyone
is programmed to do. Kant says "Can you also will
that your maxim should become a universal law. " 1
In part I agree to the theory of universal law
where "rational" is judged by universality or what
everyone should do. In fact we know that primitive
societies were not built on rationality. I believe
that we are intrinsically rational and irrational.
