Quote:What about logic?
Logic is basically reasoning via the evaluation of certain facts to reach a decisive conclusion. It is not knowledge itself, but rather a tool for aquiring it.
The concept was established by Aristotle as a mode of problem solving. Therefore, logically (see what I did there? ), we can deduce it to be impossible for us to be born with the ability to form analytical expositions.
Hope this answers your question
