Your justifications have been moved, but the topic remains. Of course you find nothing arbitrary about your endeavour, because you derive meaning from it. Yet you alone define the set of conditions for that meaning and delineate your symbology in order to confirm your own pre-existing bias towards a particular outcome. You appear not to 'follow reason wherever it may lead,' but instead already know where you want to end up and then simply have to make up an appropriate method of arriving there; its a self-authenticating mechanism.
