The Limits of Reason
Rev. Ricky Hoyt
Unitarian Universalists believe that good thinking can lead rational people to good decisions about public policy and personal actions that lead to better lives. But the philosophical assumptions that human beings can think logically, and that logical thought can lead to helpful solutions to real world problems, are not as obvious as we would like.
Rev. Ricky Hoyt has been a Unitarian Universalist minister in the Los Angeles area for 12 years. He is currently serving the First Unitarian Church of Los Angeles.
