Logic is a thing. It is three rules.

If that is the case do u accept logic as truth? If so, why?

A = A. (Identity)
A ≠ not A. (Contradiction)
A must be either A or not A. (Excluded Middle)

And this is either taken on faith to be true (and hence mathematics are also true)... or it is taken to be not true (and hence scientists are smoking the crack-rock, or flarp)

And there is this thing called tautology (identity). Cheese is cheese by tautology. It cannot be not cheese. It cannot be a third option.

And logic has only itself to support itself Smile


sorry i just realized all I did was quite you saerules. But your post confused the hell out of me. are you saying we take logic by faith? I thought we depend on logic because it works. I mean, that when we apply logic to situations in order to figure them out, they come out true. Sorry , this is over my head but as I said your post confused me.
If I die and god is real, im so screwed.
