sum up the day, 9/20/10

Last thought of the day.

Went to the seminar today where a neuroscientist was speaking. I suspected this somewhat all along, but I now think that "reason" has many facets of being a human construct as say "culture". It is impossible for me to believe that we don't have at least have some things quite wrong on what we, as humanity, generally view as reasonable. It is impossible to have well operating, but still flawed, brains, and believe that what we denote as "reasonable" really is, well, "reasonable".
