Quote:Incorrect. The OP contains the simple answer to why it is logical. Since this hypothetical universe has its own way of functioning, it means that it will have its own way for beings to ponder their universe, and such a construct is what we call "LOGIC" - a formal set of axioms by which one can reason. Thus, there can be such a thing as 'logical' in that universe, including of course their logic itself - goblygoop.Same old equivocation as the last thread. I don't know if that's a problem under the formal rules of goblygoop, maybe it isn't...but for reference, are you trying to have a logical or goblygoopal discussion, here, in this universe? Because...if it's the latter, I'd like to revise my response to "cheesecake".
