Are you “rational”?

Posted by Rex Alexander on Fri 2 May 25 in Basics, Happiness, Rational living, Rational Thinking |

  The word rational is obviously fundamental to REBT. After all, we are Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy. However, I am afraid this is misleading to many as REBT uses the word in a special way . . . Originally posted 2015-08-29 05:33:32.

Would you like to play a game?

Posted by Rex Alexander on Sun 27 Apr 25 in Rational living, Rational Thinking, z-monthly |

Would you like to play a game? This game only has one rule. It’s based on the premise that you had two parents, and you agree that–so far as we know–every human being who has ever lived had two parents.  Agreed?  If you think I’m trying to trick you, take a minute to think about […]
