Another specious defense of faith (=:reasons why we should trust unreason). The usual fallacies: 1. "Rationalists must have faith in reason" (no, we don't *believe in* reason; we *use* reason). " nyti.ms/2prBjm9

Fallacy 2: "Reason can't get me to love my wife." That's a preference (desire), not a proposition (belief), so neither faith nor reason is relevant. nyti.ms/2prBjm9

Fallacy 3: "We must act short of certainty." Best action under uncertainty is not faith. nyti.ms/2prBjm9

Worst of all: "Faith is OK, so believe the dogmas of *my* tribe!" nyti.ms/2prBjm9
