The Non-Rationalist's Delusion

Give a non-rationalist verbal rope, and he or she will often quickly hang themselves while still being irrational to the point of thinking they are not metaphorically dying at all.  Such is the inevitable standing of a person who denies or ignores the necessary truths that could not have been any other way.  Pride, humiliation, and an unwillingness to admit to themselves or others that they are wrong about something simultaneously so basic, deep, and all-encompassing as logical axioms being true and there being no such thing as truth or knowledge apart from them are their eternal obstacles, until or unless they choose to forsake a worldview based in assumptions and preferences.  It should not take almost literally anyone more than a one to three seconds to realize if they are or are not rational.  Logical truths and the contents of one's own mind, after all, are the only immediately obvious things, at least for those who are willing to recognize them.

They do not realize these things only because they are too deluded and satisfied or frightened to align with reason as is within the power of all people.  Non-rationalists are the grand problem, for assumptions and unrepentant hypocrisies only exist if fools do, while logical truths are the only thing that exists independent of all else, people included.  False ideas literally have no power except for how non-rationalists believe and express their selfish stupidity.  Relativism, hypocrisy, misogyny, misandry, racism, utilitarianism, fitheism, and every other irrationalistic philosophical stance are not necessary truths.  They are necessarily false and thus are excluded from truth by reality, with the idiocy of non-rationalists being all that treats them as if they are more than this.  It would still be logically possible for some being that has yet to come into existence to embrace these things or for a hypothetical being to believe in them, but it remains true that there is no such thing as a false idea that has any power in itself.  Necessary truths like logical axioms, on the contrary, are already true before or regardless of anyone's awareness.  They are only discovered by rationalists.

Again, it is non-rationalists themselves who are truly the issue.  Out of desperation or such grand stupidity that they will not even understand the self-evident logical axioms they already rely on in all things, even if someone else directly explains it to them so that they do not have to initially realize this on their own, they almost invariably will believe, say, and do almost anything except what is rational, even if it means betraying the ideology they supported minutes before, contradicting themselves in the very same sentence, or openly admitting that they do not think necessary truths, absolute certainty, or accurate beliefs actually have any significance or validity.  If only they would all be silent or drop dead, every problem rooted in an the words or deeds of incorrigible fools would vanish!  While their silence is not the same inherent solution as their nonexistence, it is true that the evidence for Christianity means there is evidence that killing non-rationalists for sport or out of rationalistic hatred is murder, however much some or many of us rationalists might wish it would have been otherwise.

If Christianity is true, as it seems to be, it will still be a glorious thing indeed when non-rationalists are given the deserved fate of people who do not care about truth alone above all else: eternal death, a very literal cessation of existence.  They will finally cease to exist, and never again will errors be acted upon or embraced by those people.  Why else would a non-rationalist dislike the fact that they cannot deserve to live, only at most deserve to not be murdered?  The likely omnipresent reason is that they simply do not like the idea that they do not deserve to exist because they have trivialized or denied the very heart of reality, and at the same time, they do not want to give up whatever personally comforting, egoistic, or socially accepted delusions they cling to.  It is pure selfishness and stupidity that drives them.  In fact, it is logically impossible for there to be any other reason, for if they were rational and just and sincere, they would already be rationalists or, if these qualities were only partially held, they would at the very least be on their way to accepting the intrinsic truths of rationalism.
