> Logical reasoning may be less than effective with this group of humans.

Not sure the implied condescension is justified here. Some of history's great thinkers held that position. Different axioms lead logically to different conclusions. Dismissing differing views categorically as "illogical" isn't productive. Just to be devil's advocate.




In fact, once you assume you're incapable of having a coherent absolute viewpoint because you're a unit in a greater whole with an independent viewpoint of it's own and your infering abilities are limited by time and/or energy you essentially have to pick your own axioms and therefore you're certain you will arrive at different conclusions than someone else.
