I would rather read a short article with pictures then read a 300+ page book. Both of them are subjective views anyway, it's not an exact science.

It's actually as objective as you get, if there is such a thing as "rational".

Rationality is the main principle of "exact" science too, and is a good tool to work within what we know.

Unfortunately, it's also a limitation, and maybe what's preventing us from transcending our bonds[1].

I view it as a sanity check that's preventing us from transcending from reality into imagination, which might or might not have anything to do with how world works.
There is the Philosophy in the Mathematics. It is a real branch like geometry or anything else. Socrate and others are simple to read.
Something can be subjective and stupid.
Yes, but the contents of the article can be discussed here today. Because it's short.
