The "Axioms" Of Nature

Taking your first last and your last first: Something assumed to be true for the sake of an argument. Because it is at least based on some evidence (checked against the objective evidence of reality, ground truthed, etc), and the tentativity is recognized. When you assume a truth you sometimes forget that it is not based on any evidence.Enjoy.

You end up back at axiom, something assumed to be true for the sake of the argument.Bertot's been around this issue before (first thread of his) and refused to accept it then. All he has done here is rehash all his old arguments with no new understanding.see http://EvC Forum: Is Logic a Valid Science in the establishment of ID as Scientific.? -->EvC Forum: Is Logic a Valid Science in the establishment of ID as Scientific.?
and http://EvC Forum: The use of logic in establishing truths -->EvC Forum: The use of logic in establishing truthsEnjoy.
