Re: Questioning the Rules of Reasoning

• Analogical Reasoning: A ≈ B = C ≈ X

When we can show that A is equal to B, therefore we can then show that C is equal to X.


• Reductio ad Absurdum: ¬X $‽ = X

Assume the opposite of X, follow the logic, and if it leads to a contradiction or impossible result, then X must be true.


• Bayesian Reasoning: $X +\- 🔍 = X

Create an idea close to X, and then update the belief when new evidence appears.
