  1. @Prognosis ... Both the "traditional" left and right are rational thinkers, when we move outward toward the edges, each becomes more and more ideologically driven. It is the ideologue, in the current context... "leftists / Progressives (Regressvies)" that are best described as a cult, because they are not outcast as radical by their own party. Anyone who only uses an ideology to frame what they say or how they act, is going to expose themselves as irrational. What the Regressive says at every opportunity, is how the alt-right is "destroying our Democracy", "wants a return to slavery" or some other such nonsense, fails to recognize is that THEY are the ones who are "alt" in today's society. The alt-right has zero influence in the conservative party, as they are outcast by the GOP. However, we cannot say the same of the Democratic party, as we have yet to see a "line" of which the left can cross, that will cause the rest to say it is too far.

  2. ​ @dbefore7165  .. This depends on degree. There is nothing irrational about living one's life under the guise of religion, as America, and many others, were founded upon a religious philosophy. The trouble arises when one moves toward orthodoxy that we tend to get problems, because there is less and less flexibility of interpretation. Tradition, by its very nature, is "rational", as it has been proven to be viable over a long period of time. There will be, and always have been, those who will resist traditional or rational and they currently happen to be the loudest voices in the room :(

  3. To all of the above and I intend no sarcasm or disrespect. I think it is so cool that different people read the exact same thing, yet often come away with a completely different take or response. I think that you hoomans* are fascinating creatures :) * I am a kitty, so I get to say that
