Oh, do tell: what is "the most important part of our existence?"

Our emotional well being. Science and rational thought are just tools we use to keep our emotional side happy. Irrationality has and alway will be the driving force in human behavior and life.

I know that is shocking to say that in this postmodern reductionist world, but the fact that we are reliving the Enlightenment era and revisiting Hume just shows how irrational we are to not have learned from that period in history.

Hmmmm... "regard the most important part of our existence as not existing."

>>Oh, do tell: what is "the most important part of our existence?"

>Our emotional well being.

So... you actually believe that I think "our emotional well being" doesn't exist?

How odd.
