Also how would one come to recognize reality’s irrationality anyway? By which I should clarify, when I say reality I mean the whole of existence, beyond everyday society which is a mush of reason, emotion, and ambiguous causation. In turn, when I’m talking about irrationality, I don’t mean emotionality or ambiguous causation, but an absence of any underlying reason or cause.

If at some point we reached out and dug deep enough into study of existence only to find that some things simply happen or emerge without any cause whatsoever…What might be the response?

    Isn’t this basically a lot of quantum physics? Things pop in and out of existence for no rhyme or reason there. The response is simply “we just don’t know enough to understand what we are observing yet.” I feel like that sentiment will always be true. If we ever can’t rationalize something, we will rationalize why we can’t.
