In other words, you're assuming that we're both using logic right now, but if logic doesn't actually exist, that would then just mean that you and I t...
Once logic doesn't work, that means all arguments for or against it shouldn't work... but no, that implies there is no other form of reasoning aside f...
Once you have faith in logic, it's consistent, but the system of logic itself is not logical, in that you can't prove it to be real with evidence, you...
If logic were truly like that, such absolute certainty, why am I able to doubt it? If it were truly so true, myself doubting it should not even be pos...
"Why not" is not logical reasoning, it's like saying that suddenly, we are able to use free will. Sure, that could be true, but why should I believe t...
