Efforts to promote the National Day of Reason have always emphasized secularism more than reason itself. Has this been a mistake, turning off many of those who would benefit from understanding the value of reason?

A quotation from Robert Louis Stevenson
All error, not merely verbal, is a strong way of stating that the current truth is incomplete. The follies of youth have a basis in sound reason, just as much as the embarrassing questions put by babes and sucklings. Their most antisocial acts indicate the defects of our society. When the torrent sweeps the man against a boulder, you must expect him to scream, and you need not be surprised if the scream is sometimes a theory.
Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) Scottish essayist, novelist, poet
Essay (1878-03), “Crabbed Age and Youth,” Cornhill Magazine, Vol. 37

they are the #enemies of #reason, the #biedermanns who let the #fireraisers in your house and personally handed them the matches. the #goodgermans who quietly and politely stood by while millions were murdered. they will eventually get you killed by in a million ways and they won't even know it BC YOU DID NOT SPEAK UP.

Boredom is indeed a pitiable condition. And the feeling of meaninglessness can be devastating. Still, to compensate by abandoning reason for ideology is a desperate remedy.
-- Robert Conquest
Interesting #parenting experience the last few days. My approach is to give space and be relaxed, which of course leaves opportunities to learn in ways that aren't necessarily smooth, because sometimes natural consequences are at play.
On average this means less conflict as I keep explaining things, and when something goes wrong, it's very well known what should have been done.
Latest achievement is my kid realizing it without me having to say anything.
