If you would take some time to examine this institution called "Logic" which
you are mindlessly parrotting, you might discover that it does not have a
monopoly on clear thinking, but in fact acts as a cop for certain
methodologies. When an institution interferes with deeper thinking about a
subject through prohibiting certain types of thought merely because they
violate formal rules, then, yes, it becomes the enemy of clear thinking.
People engaged in clear thinking long before the Greeks Codified and
Formalized their discipline of "logic" ... and yes, I am asserting that, lo
and behold, the Greeks and their logician descendants have not elucidated the
sum total of what clear thinking may be.
