Irrationality has destroyed the world many times in the past and could destroy the world again. Nothing is to be admired about irrationality as the more irrational a human or a society becomes the more divorced from reality that human or society becomes and the more of a parasite that person or society becomes, feeding off of others that exhibit less irrationality.

As for judging others, it is not only a necessity, but a duty. To judge is to express values and to define a morality or lack of morality. A judge-less society is a society without rights; a judge-less individual is an individual without a philosophy.

Irrationality is the bane of human progress and achievement. It has created wars, religions, socialism, despotism, occultism, mysticism, and most of the ills of mankind. Irrationality at its most extreme is madness.

You embrace the irrational? Then I can only say... "Sic Transit Gloria Michael"!!
