All should be logical in society in one way or another. Logic should not be limited solely to easily quantifable rational phenomon. It should embrace all parts of life, not only including humans but the environment around us. Logic when it is correctly used does not produce the truth, but only produces a truth that is limited in usefulness. Such a truth is only version of how things work. This truth is whatever you believe to be right. There are multiple forms of truth that surround us in our world.

Must of us agree that we live in a logical society or at least aspire to act in logical ways. We do things because they make sense and are the reasonable to do. Logic gives us technology and frameworks to understand our overly complex society, yet all too often it fails to be considered when needed most. Yet, feelings crowd out rational thought, replacing case studies and evidence with fear and paranoia.

It is hard to argue against logic, but it certainly is possble to downplay logical thought as being unsensitive and unfeeling. As they say, "so what if the numbers show that your never going to get into a terrorist attack—remember September 11th and those people jumping out of buildings". Your much more likely to die in a car fire caused by a distributor shorting out then a terrorist attack, but few have such fears.

We need to look beyond such fears and be realistic. We should not trust science or bureaucrats blindly, but we also should not trust our fears. With any policy choice, we must carefully consider all ramifications and not be blocked by fear.
