" The human mind doesn’t seek truth and accuracy; it seeks meaning.
Our minds didn’t evolve to be scientific tools; they evolved to be survival tools.
In other words, nature didn’t design them to be truth-seekers – it designed them to be useful for our emotional, mental, and social fitness.
It’s a shame no one dares to develop a criterion for rationality based on meaning, since that’s what our intellectual diet is fundamentally based on. "
