Yes, I love that cerial. Why are we irrational, is it because you don't agree with your ideas. Is that why? Well I think you are irrational, whats your answer to that? how can you prove to me that you are rational? You cant, you can only givem me your ideas, and I can chose to agree or disagree. And You can;t make me belive what you belive, sorry.

I try not to be irrational although I don't always succeed, I don't believe in the efficacy of lucky charms, I keep objects that remind me of good times or of special people or places but they are not for luck.
In reply to person above...religion doesn't hold the franchise on morality and it's not necessary to have belief in higher powers to be a moral person. Personal morality is the only real morality anyway, religious-based morality is merely following a set of directives and can hardly be said to be any kind of morality at all.

No lucky charms. No horoscopes, no tarot cards, and I've started many a project on a Friday. No superstitions of any kind, including religion.

No, id say they are completely rational but at times over analyze. That doesn't mean they are wrong cuz they are atheists. Their lucky charm are themselves i would say. Dictate my own future by what i do in the present. As much as possible that is.

no. they have a good reason to not follow a religion. Religious wars have killed many. However, atheists should acknowledge a higher power then them , so they know what morality is. Otherwise, they would consider themselves the supreme and then they can make their own rules, whether they are acceptable (by majority of humanity) or not.

I always maintain one superstition that I change from time to time. It's my mind's decoration. Right now I deliberately fear the number between 12 and 14. Next year I might decide to obsessively pick up pennies. Irrationality is fun as long as you don't take it seriously or make big decisions based on nonsense, as the religious do.

Irrational, let's see. Believing in God: something whose existence no-one can prove, which has never been conclusively seen or scientifically documented, which defies all logical explanation and would break every known law of physics . . . would that be rational, or irrational?
