Testimony and Rationality.

                                     Testimony is a formal written or spoken statement. That statement always be true and strong. Because false statement can't be testimony. If statement has word like someone, somewhere, sometime, that statement can't be testimony. Because that statement is not strong. Testimony and perception always bind with each other. Because if we have not sensory organs, we can't present our ideas properly. If I am a blind person I can't say I was saw that. I can only say, someone saw that and he or she said to me. Actually it is not a strong statement. Because even I don't see who said it to me. So, perception is very important in testimony. And also testimony is very very important to develop knowledge. Some philosopher have said that testimony provide knowledge and some have said that it doesn't provide knowledge. In my opinion it is depend on situation and people around that situation. I think, testimony is a good knowledge sharing system. Reading is a good method to gain knowledge. Reading materials also written by someone. And also a good discussion also provide very valuable knowledge. All these situations, testimony has very important role. If we going to do group work, testimony is very important. Because, as we are a group of people we have different ideas and we have to present our idea and discuss among them. Situation like that we have to prove our ideas present with testimony. Testimony is very strong statement and no one try to argue with us.

                             Rationality is the quality of being based on or in accordance with reason or logic. I think that rationality and logical thinking have same meaning. If someone can think logically or if someone has logical ideas it must be a voluble thing that he has. Logical thinking is very important thin that is very useful for our all work. Even, when we do shopping we have to think logically, what I am going to buy? And also analyzing power is very important to rationality.  Rationality is very important in philosophy also. because most of the philosophical problems have more than one good answer. So, we have to choose better answer from among them. At that time we have to think logically  and  analyze those answers with respect to our knowledge. It is good to meet and discuss some problems and have small discussions with logically thinking peoples. Because they haven't negative ideas and they always try to achieve their goals.
