We learned today that the rational mind is not the authority we wish it to be. Our confidence in collective human intellect has been shattered again and again. Human reason fails and it fails often. What's our response when this happens? We certainly don't lament the unreliability of our intellect. We simply chalk it up as an exception to rule and press on with our knowledge acquisition. Let me ask you, why does reason get so much credit in spite of it's repeated shortcomings? Why do emotions get so much flack when we know they can help move us in the right direction? I believe that emotional intuition has a noble track record. What about you? Any ideas on improving our I.Q. - our intuition quotient?
