I don’t think anybody here is denying that the “ ‘rational animal’ of the Enlightenment is far less rational than it supposes.”

Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.
