And I wouldn't call that person rational, either. He may want to be rational, and just be wrong about the how.

Well he might be rational and he might not be, but pretty clearly he perceives himself to be rational. Or at a minimum, he does not perceive himself to be not rational. Agreed?

Some Christians are merely not rational, but some groups are explicitly anti-rational: they attack rationality, science, and evidence-based reasoning by association, even when they don't disagree with the actual evidence or conclusions.

Would you mind providing two or three quotes from Christians which manifest this attitude so I can understand and scrutinize your point?

The Reddit thread is interesting. 5 isn't a big sample, and we got examples basically of all points of view.

That's true. But I would say that of the 5, there was only one individual who doesn't perceive himself to be rational. Two pretty clearly perceive themselves to be rational. And two are in a greyer area but pretty clearly would come up with rationalizations to justify their beliefs. Which is irrational but they don't seem to perceive it as such.

I agree that it's unusual. My original claim was that many more people don't accept rationality as a valid or necessary criterion and don't even try to evaluate their beliefs' rationality.

Well, I agree that a lot of people might not have a clear opinion about whether their beliefs are rational. But the bottom line is that when push comes to shove, most people seem to believe that their beliefs are a reasonable evidence-based conclusion.

But I am interested to see quotes from these anti-rational Christians you refer to.
