Logic is highly deductive and mathematical. Nature on the other tends to possibility rather than necessity (modal logic). That's why a lot of what we observe is absurd. Please don't say you're one of those people who blur the line between observer and observed.

I think you should have replaced illogical with unfounded or without evidence.

I enjoy blurring the line between observer and observed. It lets me feel like a man when I put people down.



I actually don't understand what you're getting at. I looked up modal logic. Wut.

lol.. yeah, I got a bit carried away there. Basically I said that not everything is what is seems, is "logical" as you put it. Sometimes the most ridiculous theory that is just outright retarded is actually the right one.

(Edit - as opposed to what you said about failing to appeal to rationality.)
