But which cannot be absolutely proven.
La-de-dah.
You lied.
Walt
Says who? And no Walt, neither you nor those little voices of Abraham Lincoln in your head count as such an authority.
As a side note, to demonstrate necessarily is to prove. To demonstrate that if X is true, Y must necessarily be true is to demonstrate the truth of Y with certitude. Live with it.
La-de-dah.
Are your voices singing to you again, Walt?
You lied.
No, and I can say so with certitude as you have not even specified your allegation, much less proven it. Therefore it may be rejected in a word. Quod gratis asseritur, gratis negature. Live with it.
From the 2000 American Heritage Dictionary...
nec·es·sar·y Pronunciation Key (ns-sr) adj.
3. Logic
1. Unavoidably determined by prior conditions or circumstances; inevitable: ex. the necessary results of overindulgence.
2. Logically inevitable.
in·ev·i·ta·ble Pronunciation Key (n-v-t-bl) adj.
1. Impossible to avoid or prevent. Certain
Let's recap:
1. To deduce is to reason a conclusion that follows necessarily from the stated premises.
2. To be necessary (as in following necessarily) is to be logically inevitable.
3. To be inevitable is to be impossible to avoid.
4. Hence, a deduction is capable of proving something that is impossible to avoid - in other words, an absolute posessing of certitude.
So there you have it Walt. Just as when two pulitzers beat one I win, properly followed semantics beat improper distortions of them, so again I win. That makes you a double loser. Live with it.
