Most efforts to combat irrationality are unsystematic, incomplete, and one-sided. That is, they focus on one specific cause or effect of irrationality, usually the latter. They do not integrate that specific irrationality into a coherent framework. But most importantly, they attack from only one side, combating the cause without attacking the effect, or vice versa.
I propose to change that.
My idea is simple: chart out all the major effects of irrationality and the forces that contribute to existing irrationality. From this, determine the main factors that propagate irrationality and its effects. Then attack both the causes and effects of irrationality, in an integrated sweep.
