I challenge somebody to invent a type of rationality that satisfies the need for the warm fuzzies when presented to minds that are inherently opposed to derive such from rationality.

You are basically asking to start with a=FALSE ("inherently opposed to derive such from rationality") and prove that a=TRUE ("invent a type of rationality that satisfies the need for the warm fuzzies"). I hope that asking to prove that TRUE=FALSE was not your intention.
