So there is an argument that says rational people, working within the world of rationality and under the laws of math and logic will draw the same conclusions about something **assuming every single thing they know about anything is exactly the same!** Well poppycock for them! Cause it's soooooo often that two humans know exactly the same thing about something, and have exactly the same resources to draw on to define the world. *****rrrrroooollllssss eyes better than the best teenager*.

I am endlessly surprized at how many people in pesuedo-academics (ie., thunderfood, the amazing atheist, and many at less wrong) really think that there is *a* rational answer to any problem if you merely think about it enough, and that this answer can be explained to anyone else who is rational and they will either agree with you, or they are not rational enough.

I don't know if it's a socialized "gender" thing, or just one person vs. other people, but it *seems* to me, women are less likely to fall into this fallacy (we have plenty of our own, of course). Or I just don't read enough women in psuedo academics.
