Abstract
This paper is about a holy cow. It is the holy cow of rationality,
meaning, as such, the retardation of our knowing. The paper goes into
the elements "competence", "performer" and kinds of legitimisation
that play a role here. The objective of the paper is to depict the
situation in science "beyond" rationality. What are the important
elements in a science using "non-rational external factors"? How can
science arrive at a better "performance of chaos"?
