Logic

Well … today I was mulling over why on Earth people tend to see logic as cold or unemotional/impersonal. How completely odd, when you really start thinking about it and recall an array of debates you’ve witnessed or participated in, personal or public.

    I suspect the misunderstanding of logic is the result of Christian theologians and philosophers applying dualism to Greek philosophy and rhetoric. Logic/unemotion is associated with rationality, goodness, and men, while illogic/emotion is associated with irrationality, badness, and women. It’s nonsense, but it is the dominant paradigm…

    Hope it’s not anything like this:
