And this does, indeed, summarize the whole thread.
The Fifth is THE classic example of an axiom. The use of axioms in Euclid's geometry is the classic use of them. Heck it is probably why we use the word axiom (which sure looks Greek to me).
That you can make the above statement shows how far off in your own little world you are.
If I am not mistaken it was you fellas contention, throughout this whole thread, that for an axiom to be valid it must correspond to physical things which would allow a physical test. But since it is characteristic of you fellas to change the rules constantly, then it does not suprise me at this point, that you would make this statement now.
Further, I restate my position, his so-called axiom is nothing of the sort. And we call it an axiom, because it is descriptive of itself, not vis versa. Enjoy Though.
