Well, I am happy that we discussed about what role reason plays. I think I have a better understanding of that now because of talking about it in class. So reason is like a tool that assists us whether a goal(s) is/are going to give us happiness or not. It gives us the irrational and the unreasonable aspect…? I then asked myself a question and pondered heavily on trying to find an answer. How are our emotions working in this whole process? My answer is…emotions pick things up from our surroundings, so sympathy kicks in and we get a transfer of emotions. [if you have a better answer, please do let me know, please and thank you. ^-^] And with sympathy comes the behavior changes or change of the thought of the world. Can that somehow alter our goals as well?
By chance if we did not have reason would be able to accomplish our goals with the satisfaction, or pleasure, in the end? Or would be have to try all our goals to find out which one gives us pleasure?
I'll come by again with quotes when I have my book on hand.
