What is more important, instinct or rational thought? (3-5 sentences)

Rational thought is more important. It's more important because you have to apply critical thinking meanwhile instinct is just a feeling. It's like what is more weighed on. A fact or an opinion?

its hard for me to see which word is supposed to be in bold. if i knew then i would be able to better.

- a.) the man dies after he is unable to keep a fire lit.
