Irrational maybe no more than many of our so-said rational thoughts.
Since the emergence of conscience (some hundreds of thousands years) and 
until one or two centuries only, the population was mainly gathered in small 
autarkic tribes or villages.
Don't you think we keep traces of that in our brain? We still have the same 
as our hunter/gatherer ancestors.
I'm sure man is not made to live in huge cities (now have we the choice?).
