Rational thought is employing the logic known as 'thinking' or 'understanding'

Rational Logic doesn't own the 'knowledge' (experience) about reality. For example, intuition makes a deer identify a human as predator because most humans behave like predators.

'Rational thought' or 'understanding/thinking' is applying of the logic 'rationality', designed in Enlightenment by the Catholic pries Descartes. Since application of 'rational' logic is not limited to facts and also include juggling with abstract notions, 'rationality' can also be without emotion and totally abstract (the law is reason without emotion)
