axioms are not irrational--they simply cannot be demonstrated from within a proof that presupposes them.
they can be demonstrated/subjected to proof--the only problem really is that this sets up the possibility for a regress of proofs.
were that not the case, you could argue that circles are only circles if they wear bunny scuffs when they go to bed and there'd be nothing to be said about it.
