Rational Perspective

Firstly, what is a 'rational perspective'? Well, let's look at a couple of definitions, found in more or less any dictionary of your choice, of 'rational' and 'perspective'.

Perspective : a way of regarding facts and their relative importance; in correct proportion.

Rational : sane, intelligent, endowed with reason, agreeable to reason.

Rationalism : a system of belief regulated by reason, not authority.

So, my definition of 'Rational Perspective' is : 'examination using reason not dogma, prejudice, emotion or sentiment'.

So, what is 'dogma'? One definition of 'dogma' is : a settled opinion.

And prejudice? Judgement or opinion formed prematurely or without due consideration of relevant issues; prepossession or bias in favour of or against an issue.

I would like to think that I am using a rational perspective as a basis for the formation of a rationalist's agenda.

Agenda : A list if things to be done

Rationalist : one taking a rational view.

In other words let's use a little logic and thought to decide what should be done. I can hear you ask 'done about what'? Well everything really.
