Re: Society, Intuition and Logic
Here, go back to what I said here:
[ QUOTE ]
To go back to my previous example, it's the difference between knowing how your mother feels about you because you weighed the evidence and drew the appropriate conclusion, and knowing because you just feel a certain state of being to be true. In this case, the latter epistemological process tends to give a fuller and more nuanced understanding of the relationship that the former.

The bolded part does not mean: "gives you more accurate information about your mother," which is what you seem to be rebutting. It means that there are aspects of the relationship and its attendant emotions which are too intangible to be captured by language, let alone logic.
