Getting gunned down by #police to own the #libs is peak #MAGAt. These people are sick, #irrational, #hateful, pridefully #ignorant, and cannot be reasoned with. There is no middle ground that can be reached. All we can do is defeat them.

4 #Irrational #Beliefs That May Be Holding You Back From #Happiness—And How Rational Emotive #Behavior #Therapy Can Help

🧶
• labeling emotion as "#irrational" or anti-intellectual or inferior, which means failing to recognize the importance of emotional intelligence;
• pretending or insisting that our point of view is grounded in the "#rational" or the intellectual when we are in fact masking our emotions with what appear to be rational or intellectual arguments.

The art of not going #insane in our #time is to be able to #distinguish the #irrational from the #rational , or to #delimit one's little private #world to the #outside.

Always #remember we no longer form an #opinion , but the #allgorhythms of this world try to implement one for #us.

Have a #nice #day 🔆🔆🔆!

Does anyone else have a fear that as you reach for the public restroom door to exit that someone rushing in is going to slam the door open and smash your fingers?

Maybe it's just me.

Thema ➡️ irrationaler Ekel ⬅️
Wie bereits die Bezeichnung vermuten lässt, ist das Ekelgefühl nicht wirklich nachvollzieh- und erklärbar.

Mein Endgegner sind Kochvideos 🥘📱, in denen eine Person mit künstlichen Fingernägeln 💅 Zutaten von Hand verknetet. Da rollen sich bei mir die Zehennägel 🦶 hoch und mir dreht sich der Magen um 🤢.

Kennst du solche irrationalen Ekel-/Anscheu-Situationen auch?

When people learn that scientists are investigating why people follow #religion, religious people get upset. Likewise, when scientists investigate why people are #atheist, atheists get upset. The implication is that if the subject is under #investigation, then the #reason is not obvious and could be #irrational. Did you have any #emotional reaction when you read the first two sentences? #CognitiveBias

@ecologist @nuncio It’s forcing the #edicts of a #religious text not recognized by all members of the society on all the members. Americans were shocked when #Sharia law was enacted in Middle Eastern countries b/c it is brutal & #irrational. Now White supremacist “Christians” want to enforce their irrational & #brutal “biblical” “laws” on all #Americans regardless of their faith or if they are #agnostic or #atheist. It’s purely for power & money. Catholics & Evangelicals are proven abusers.

'Just screaming': 'Irrational' Marjorie Taylor Greene hurls profanity at spy balloon briefing

“When she got to ask questions, she was yelling out saying ‘bulls---’ and, you know, ‘I don’t believe you,’” said that lawmaker. “Just screaming and yelling, irrational in my estimation.”

“I had to wait in line the whole time. I was, I think, the second to last person, and I chewed them out…

Things I can’t stand that drive me irrational, clothing edition:

- collars / anything tight on my neck
- Itchy clothing
- Tight clothing
- Socks that are too thick
-Socks that bunch up
-Hot clothing
- Heavy clothing
- Metal jewelry that feel “wrong” (oily, loud)

List prompted by another conversation I’m having on here.

"A good notation has a subtlety and
suggestiveness which at times make it seem almost like a live teacher.
Notational irregularities are often the first sign of philosophical errors,
and a perfect notation would be a substitute for thought."
I immensely admire Bertrand #Russell, yet this claim is an instance of #irrational, magical thinking.

There is no perfect #notation. If there were one, it would be a good means to express #thought, and not a substitute for it.

This will be the eighth year. The eighth year of a major American political party and their ally media outlets presenting #irrational immoral, insane performance art policies and positions as #rational alternatives to a civilized society and civilization already facing extinction level threat events within the environment and from would be totalitarian states and state actors. Bonhoeffer and others warned us that this day would come if we did not address stupidity in the system and in society.

It’s Sunday so as an angry #Atheist I like to pass along my passionate depreciation of this world’s #religions. They are #bigots, totally #irrational, oftentimes #malevolent and always #intolerant. They #corrupt their #children’s minds before they have reached their own age of #reason. Finally they hold all #women as either #chattel or at best in #submissive status.

A beautiful proof of why \(\sqrt{2}\notin\mathbb{Q}\):

Let \(k=\min\{n\in\mathbb{N}:n\sqrt{2}\in\mathbb{N}\}\).
But, \(k(\sqrt2-1)\sqrt2=2k-k\sqrt2\)
and \(k(\sqrt2-1)<k\).
\(\implies\boxed{\sqrt2\notin\mathbb{Q}}\)

Very interesting read!!

How and why irrationality takes hold, and what do to about it.

Why do people hold outlandish beliefs, and how modern universities are straying from their commitment to reason and truth.

#Theist: But you can't prove God exists! He's beyond understanding!
#Atheist: Then how do you know you're believing in anything?
Theist: I had an experience!

If you feel/experience something, you are comprehending it, and if you ascribe it a meaning, you are understanding it. #God can't be beyond comprehension or understanding, because that would necessarily mean your best (subjective) #Evidence from Experience is false, and your #belief is #irrational.
