Khrystism #766: logic and reality (WIP)

Most of my Khrystisms have been developed over many years, but this is a new one. I'm not too sure about it yet, so we'll see...

We can justify anything. Which is to say, we can convince ourselves of the truth or righteousness of any situation or choice or outcome, using logic and rhetoric. But, because we can do that with anything and to any end we convince ourselves is the right one, none of those justifications are real. Only the thoughts that we *can't* logic ourselves out of or away from are real... only our instincts and feelings are real. I don't mean emotions, though I think they are higher on the reality scale than logic. I'm talking about that gut feeling of what you know is TRUE.

One of the most prevalent examples of this, of course, is love. You can't logic love: you can't explain it, you can't justify it, you can't make it go away. (You can try, but it's either there or it isn't.) To quote one of my favorite movies: "LOVE is REAL and it is TERRIFYING"

It might not make any sense, and it might go against whatever logic you attempt to apply to the situation, but you cannot deny love. Because love is real, and logic is not. And LOVE is all that matters.
