Ahhh grasshoppers, how can rationality be complete without
irrationality? How can that which is be complete without that which is
not? How can the yin be complete without the yang?

When you put the yin of rationality together with the yang of
irrationality do you not get REALITY...the world which science observes?
And is your science not incomplete without both?
