But...

Take electricity adoption for example, with your adage then it means unreasonable pro-electricity people vs unreasonable anti-electricity people. We know how this turns out, I don't see a lot of people joining the Amish.

It's okay to have strong opinions (be "unreasonable"), but in the end humanity as a whole (the "reasonable" people) will judge whether your opinion is a good one or not. Only time will tell.
