what shd we follow logic or intuition?

Answer 1

I don't think that it has to be an "or" question. One would be wise to avoid the extremes of a thing, and instead focus on the balance between the extremes. Logic is a very important tool, but intuition is a part of what makes us human. It's important to take both into account.

Answer 2

you can use your intuition, but your logic must be your ultimate standard. intuition is shaped by your personal circumstances, history, culture, and prejudices. logic is not (and if it is, it is to a far lesser degree). A racist will have racist intuitions (for example, they might not be able to argue logically that black and white people should be separated, but they just feel that if they are integrated bad things will happen.) Today, for example, many people have intuitions that allowing gay marriage will damage society, but they cannot make any logical arguments that this will happen.

Since intuition only reflects your own perspective, there could be no conflict resolution if it was solely used. Two people can have opposing intuitions, but they cannot resolve their differences without appeal to some objective standard, like logic.

Of course follow your intuition about things, especially things that logic can say nothing about. But, when possible, logic should be the ultimate standard to judge by. If there is a conflict between intuition and logic, go with logic.

Opposite D: and how do we determine the truth?

Answer 3

This isn't an either or question. Both serve when appropriate for YOU. I have ALWAYS regretted when not listening to my intuition. But that's subjective. Certainly in an intelligent dialog, logic is essential. You simply can't weigh them on a scale & say one is better than the other. Be a little introspective & perhaps you can see the consequences when you used intuition & when you used logic. People are different. Some are more "in tune" with their intuitiveness.

Answer 4

Usually relationships are guided by intuition, and material aspects of life by logic....
If a person can consciously invoke logic and intuition at will, separately, then he can look at situation using the three types, that is ... logic, intuition, and logic+intuition... and the so chosen option would seldom go wrong !

Answer 5

My intuition sucks, so don't follow mine!
I always go with logic or the complete opposite of my intuition.

Answer 6

Logic.

Intuition is a nice way of saying "guess" and guess is being generous. If you're about to jump out of the way of a train and your intuition says go to the right instead of the left, that's one thing, but most of the time intuition is anything but life saving.

If you can't see how you came to a conclusion, then it isn't a valid conclusion. Even if you're intuition gives you the correct conclusion, if you don't know how you reached it, it is worthless.

Answer 7

Both. At times logic works best and at times intuition works better than logic, i.e. it is called sixth sense.

If one falls in love with someone, is it logical or supra-logical.

Answer 8

Depends on how well your intuition has served you in the past. If it served you well, I'd say stick with it a while longer. If not, then go for the logic.

Answer 9

thinking somebody is responsible via fact they look humorous has no longer something to do with instinct, except the "looking humorous" is the guy's power that's asking ordinary. Einstein pronounced that instinct is the main needed concern. yet he could take his intuitive insights and pass with them in a logical style of way. whilst that's a quiet, small voice, that could in lots of cases be relied upon. It takes some prepare to renowned it, for that's an extremely quiet voice. i stumble on that folk who have faith their hearts (or instinct) are happier and greater take care of than they have been whilst they did no longer.

Answer 10

i follow logic in my decision making, cause im too lame on my intuition. if my guts tell me that it is not right, and i apply my logic reasoning, it usually right on the dot...
