What is rationalism?

Rationalism is any philosophical view that regards reason, as opposed to sense experience or religious doctrine, as the source of knowledge or justification.

It argues that some propositions are knowable by us by intuition alone, while other propositions are knowable by being deduced through valid arguments from intuited propositions.
