Dear Dr. Freemo: I am starting to comprehend and understand what you are trying to teach me. It is starting to make some sense, I still do not totally grasp everything, I am only at the baby stage of just starting to grasp the rudimentary ideas. So I guess I should study formal logic as a starting point. Yes Dr. Freemo you have been successful in teaching me different things which I am grateful for. This is causing me to expend considerable amount of intense focused psychological mental energy to attempt to learn.
Teaching people and passing on the expertise it took a lifetime to learn is probably one of the most important things I can do, so I am happy to hear this.
So formal logic could be considered a pure analytical framework process that remains itself to be intact, untainted and free from any outside influences.
Yes, well unless we consider the axioms “outside influence”.. but yes. Like with a lot of math it is objective, 1+1=2 regardless of your opinions. “if i have one unicorn and another comes over then I have 2 unicorns” this is true regardless of if i actually have unicorns or not. In fact you can say math as a whole doesnt try to tell you if something is true, it only tries to tell you 1) the relationship between things and 2) if there is internal consistency (if the axioms you bring dont contradict eachother).
In fact one can argue that the ability to detect inconsistencies in axioms can be a tool for determining the truth. But it can only eliminate certain things as untrue due to logical inconsistency, it still wont tell you if your axioms are true when they are consistent.
This makes sense, logic is then based on inherent designed strict order of rules. So logic is devoid of psychological emotional reactiveness. So a computer program would ultimately rely upon specific built-in routine program parameters of logic in order to initiate the execution of action(s), only if certain inherent built-in programming condition(s) are met. So we as human beings utilize similar learned behavioral psychological conditioning in order to employ “First order prepositional logic.”
Yea logic has strict rules, as it should in the real world, and is meant to be a tool to help us be more objective rather than making us right :)
