Alain de Botton explores the idea that humans are not solely rational creatures, but also emotional beings.

Krista Tippett adds that the assumption of rationality as the foundation of secular society is flawed, and that acknowledging our emotional complexity is essential for a more holistic understanding of human existence.In this clip
