Not for me anyway, is it presupposition for you? How so?[/quote]Should you? Yes you should. It is an axiom, a self-evident truth. It stands so long as you are unable to show that it is not an axiom. And if you dismiss the notion of an inherently orderly universe that makes you an absurdist. Which also means that you are absurd and unworthy of engaging in rational discussion.
