Reasoning happens in the logical brain.

The outcome of the reasoning is one of the inputs to our emotional brain, along with observations, circumstantial evidence, patterns caught by subconscious, etc.

The instinct you feel is the outcome of everything considered together.

You are solely focusing on the second part and missing the first part. I understand where you are coming from. I spent decades thinking that way.

One thing I’ve noticed is that you cannot convince anyone that the mind/brain works in a higher way than they know. It’s like convincing a fish in the ocean that there is a world of talking people on the ‘land’.
