Leviathan - Chapter 2

Nah you’re not even close.

You’re missing the forest for the trees and the irony is going right over your head….

Firstly and most obviously, “rationality” and “human nature” are antonyms. They’re contrary, opposites.

Human nature is the study of the irrational. Not the rational.

“Children act how they’re raised.”

Yes. But circumstances. Variables. Life happens and human nature/behavior is, you guessed it, irrational.

Adolescent male behaviors and their natural inclinations/desires to explore, expand ones scope, leave the nest, outreach, become a man, replace the patriarch etc.

Just about everything encompassing your entire argument stands against your “rationale”.

Which is, in and of itself irrational logic. Ie; it’s illogical. (This is the irony…did you miss it?)

Besides, if we did a scientific test and put 10 families with one adolescent son in each, one OR MORE would exhibit disobedience at some point along the test.

Like really? Even a controlled sample test would bring us the opposite of what you’re saying is “rational”.

Again, human nature is irrational.

I hope you learned something new. What you were saying was really ignorant and illogic…the irony haha
