Are we Rational ???


Are we rational beings or in other words do we have rational thinking ?  I doubt it !! :O
If we consider our mental process we are thinking about stuff that we do not want to think about
and we do not have much control over our thoughts infact  the one which we want to avoid
they struck even more. So are we truly rational? Can our thinking be explained as rational
thinking if we consider an average human being?

Our brain has infinite capabilities but a major part of that is wasted in foolish
activities still we call ourselves rational.

May be it is the absence of any other creature that has a better thinking and intellectual
capabilities that forces us to think that we are rational.

What do you all think about it ???

  1. well what u have said in the initial lines its very true!! but the thing is it has a lot of psychology behind it. in layman terms we complicate our natural instincts by just thinking about them. the more u wanna let something go the more it sticks back. and apart from that as far as humans, having a rational mind is concerned it only makes sense in economics where every law assumes that by including it under ceteris paribus!! =)
