I can measure how rational you really are.

The result is around zero.

Seriously, come on, people are not rationally thinking creatures at all, nobody is. There is nothing to even measure.

If everybody became rational, the world would collapse instantly. Do you realize how many people would cease their socially indispensable work if they acted perfectly rational from an individual (meaning egotistical) perspective?

I clearly see that I am irrational, but I cannot stop being so.

I estimate that in order to become rationally thinking, I would have to undergo an unbearably painful transformation of my entire mental entity. My mind just works that way, it is hardwired irrationally, as any other human's mind.

The article and the attempt itself are great though.

It is often in the interest of individuals to contribute to the group.
