Superrationality and a return to the Middle Ages

Originally, culture is the result of reason and progress. In other words, culture is the result of human efforts to improve something. Perhaps that's why in Korea, when a conservative government takes power, the atmosphere of the government flows to ultra-rationality, which is an atmosphere of counterculture.

 

Super-rationality means it is not rational. Super-rationality, religion, physiognomy, desired thoughts, and imagination without practical power dominate Korean society. Politics without hard work to agonize and improve cannot be a rational government. It has been creaking since the beginning of the Korean government, and public opinion is increasingly criticizing the government head and people around him for being fraudulent.

 

I have felt a fatal problem in Korean society while driving a neighborhood bus for various reasons. There were many times when I thought that the atmosphere of Korean society, which neglects and ignores work, recommended fraudulent behavior.

 

Anthropologist Marvin Harris wrote this in his book titled The Return of the Witch.

 

Recently, Charles A. Reich, a minor prophet of counterculture, talks about the millennial state of the mind, which he calls the Third Consciousness. "To reach this third consciousness, there must be deep skepticism about [logic], [rationality], [analysis], [principles], etc."

retranslation

  

People with a sense of counterculture think that they can have anything they want. In fact, if your imagination and conviction are excessive, you may get what you want. However, it has a limitation that it must contribute to the permanence of the neighboring community, that is, the sum of things. In the end, selfish conviction is limited by human greed or just oppression.

 

Korean society is suffering a lot from ideological or religious imagination. This is the case even at this moment. We must not destroy the Korean social community and historical Korean culture.
