No, not or logical tautology ... Evidence and logical tautology.

Hrmm. I think you perhaps misunderstand the difference. Can you demonstrate a proposition that is true BOTH evidentially AND tautologically? Personally, I cannot conceive of one. As far as I am aware, the negation of a necessary truth (tautological proposition) results in a contradiction, whereas one can negate a contingent truth (empirical proposition) without producing a contradiction; ergo, a proposition is either empirically true or tautologically true, but never both.

Ok, probably got that one wrong, what i mean to say is that the most logically flawless explanation is not always the only explanation, in fact there may be many, and the only way to differentiate between such propositions is through evidence. You need the hypothesis first, a logical proposition, but you need evidence to verify that proposition.

Taking origins of the cosmos for example again, many of the propositions are valid propositions but that does not mean a single one can be known for certain (or with any level of certainty) as truth because there is no standard by which we can differentiate between claims.

I for one see human logic alone to be an inadequate way to make statements about the unknown, but once you have the logically consistent propositions you can see which of the propositions is supported by evidence and which ones are not.

For example, with the germ theory of disease, before it was discovered the idea that demons or spirits were responsible for ailments was a reasonable and logical proposition that was only negated when the evidence supported a different idea (and sadly to some extent is still substituted for spiritual nonsense, resulting in a great loss of life)

Others on this forum have already done so.

"What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof," yes? Thus I have done with your unsupported assertion.

You are free to dismiss it, but you are well aware of the opposition to your claims.

Likewise, your TAG is nothing more than an assumption and as such it will be treated like one until verified by evidence.
