Logic is the method of reasoning used to come to conclusions by use of facts. Owned. My definition by my long time experience with logic.
I also learned by experience that the only time logic fails is when the facts that it is based on fails, and when the human being using the logic makes a mistake.
Something with perfect logic and perfect facts could prove a lot...
The best definition is a Criteria that you can use to distinguish
Your definition is more of an explanation not a definition, can you apply your definition to know if a statement is logical or not?
My definition is prefect regarding this matter!
My definition is an explaination. AN EXPLAINATION OF WHAT LOGIC IS! Therefore the definition of logic is the one I listed above, if the definition of the word definition is an explaination of what something is.
Now, you can run around with your existential philosophical prancing, but you've not proven anything.
My definition is true of all logical conclusion.
If my conclusion was wrong, and my conclusion is just based on faulty logic, then please do prove it wrong, with a counterstatement- a logical statement that proves something wrong by example.
I'm sorry, but this thread just insults my favorite method of thinking that is one of my greatest talents. Well, not insults, I think its just existential philosophical rambling...
I also must state that you are in fact confusing the definition of logic with the definition of definition.
Just prove my statement wrong.
If my statement is contradictory to yours, and my statement is proven true, then your statement must be fasle. Just to note, that is a logical sentence, not a definition of something, or an ability to define things.
Logic is the method of reaching conclusions based on facts.
FACT.
