This is a good point. Rationalism, as we conceive it, seems to be more of a direction than a destination.
But I thought this was exactly what was conveyed by the word aspiring.
Not necessarily. It just means that we're reaching for a goal that we have not yet attained (possibly because the goal isn't fully attainable, in which case it does mostly collapse to what I said).
