Reason

Reason never grasps signs in their entirety. It is confined within the limits that connect and separate signs and symbols. If a sign may be clearly compared and quantified by reason, so its meaning does not transcend the limits of the quantifiable, it has lost its link with Unity or the Principle as the source and confluence of all things. -- Rusmir Mahmutćehajić, The Praised and the Virgin, 2014
Reason is a way of delineating things, determining them; its synonym is reckoning. Reason is properly a co-operator and a servant of revelation.On his laptop. Humans tend to overestimate their reasoning abilities, or their access to Reason, but reason is basically just a tool for profiling, i.e. abstracting (Eiríksson, 2021)

Reason is a very inadequate term with which to comprehend the forms of man’s cultural life in all their richness and variety. But all these forms are symbolic forms. Hence, instead of defining man as an animal rationale, we should define him as an animal symbolicum. By so doing we can designate his specific difference, and we can understand the new way open to man – the way to civilization.-- Ernst CassirerThe Socratic idea of reason is based on the affective aspects of existence, without them mutually excluding each other.

“If reason is so secure, legitimate, supersensibly guaranteed, why all the guns?” (Fanged Noumena, 150).
I think Land makes a mistake here. Just because something is secure, doesn't mean it doesn't have "guns". Just because a victor, e.g., maintains his guns, doesn't mean he isn't secure (Eiríksson, 2021).

i don't favor a reductionistic account of reason.
language works through analogical reasoning. that's how the words make sense and are not irrational nonsense.cf ☀«Analogical Reasoning in Animals», Flemming. 2012.G. Eiríksson.Isaac Asimov, who wrote prolifically in “the clear unerring voice of a man speaking reason, uttering tales about how to solve the true world.”
The meaning of Reason was actually stable for a 1.000 years or something. It's Aristotelian reason through guys like Boethius and Aquinas. But by the 1700's shit like Deism had become popular, and even Atheism, so leftists started talking about reason outside of the normal meaning. The disattaching of reason from its normal use really started chiefly with the vacuum enabled by various groups of people starting their own sects versus Catholicism and other normative churches. Hence you get to the so-called "Cult of Reason" in the French Revolution, which to a normal European person a few centuries before wouldn't be reason at all.
