The implication is so strong that certainly no one would argue against rational governance. However, I will show that although implied, it is far from being implemented. And, this lack of implementation makes a mockery of the entire social paradigm. But, the law must be governed by reason.
Irrational law makes a mockery of the entire social structure.
The existence of irrational law applied against an individual or group represents irrational governance. Anyone who is simply appalled by the mere existence of irrational law, let alone that law being imposed upon them, may be justified in retaliatory action. Also I use the term democracy in the generic sense, meaning self-determination by means of universal suffrage or at minimum, a government which is sanctioned by the will of the majority. Also, what is rational, is rational from the context of voluntary membership in a civil society of equals. And, civil society is one where disputes are settled by reasonable means, rather than violence.
