What in the hell is this "sound reasoning" bullshit?

I mean... I can tautology too... but it won't change the fact that I'm sorely unable to observe "truth" from that which I might be lead to believe is "truth"... there is literally nothing that differs between a reasoning that is "correct" (what even is that?) and a reasoning that is only valid... nothing except whether or not I BELIEVE it.

Cool... where is this delicious unicorn, and can I have mine with some snazzberry jam, and a side of some healthy fast food?

How do you know you're not wrong? What are these "answers" that you have?

What the fuck is a creative singularity?
Hehe
It's a singularity with extra explanatory powers
AKA: creator god. Like Alice if she only had a planet-sized paintbrush.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
