Quote:Remember I've said what universe it is is irrelevant. A=A. Cosmology doesn't matter. Whatever universe we're talking about we're talking about whatever universe we're talking about and that means the same thing as A=A which means whatever universe we're talking about we're talking about a universe where the law of identity applies.Pitch it baby, here, you can have my fork.
Quote:2+2=4 because 4 has the same identity as 2+2. 5 does not. 5 never can. It doesn't matter what universe it is, if we're talking about 4 things we're talking about 4 things, not 5 things.
Not in the hypothetical universe we're describing. In the hypothetical universe we're describing, 2+2=5. Handle it, address that, or bitch about something else, your call.
OP doesn't ask you, nor do I ask, you, whether or not such a univers can or does exist. Op asks you, and I ask you, whether or not such a universe, in which the proposition -is- true...however it may be true, can be called "logical".
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
