Yes, rationality itself isn't enough, it doesn't inspire. What we need is a charismatic leader with a simple, easily communicated message of social improvement, something like a modernised version of this should do the trick, one people want to believe in without necessarily having to understand the implications; we need a Barack Obama for the mind.

Course, we've had demgoguic leaders before, Lenin, Stalin, Hitler & Mao seemed able to whip up an a-religious frenzy. Sadly for us, not to much different result from the voodoo muck-spreaders.

Sigh.
