"I have a hypothesis which I would like to test. If any statement is made and the question of 'why?' is asked in reference to that statement there will be finite regress of statements until eventually an assumption is made."

There's nothing wrong with inductive reasoning/assumptions... I never said there was.

I simply said that the fact that it is inductive supports my hypothesis. I swear, sometimes it seems like people just want to argue about things that were never said.
Brevity is the soul of wit.
