Logic Equation....

Post by Soontir C'boath »

What if the right side is wrong?

R= right and W=wrong

R=W but then it also means W=R

Meaning the right is wrong and the wrong is right.
So if I'm wrong then i'm right.

Am I right?

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

The right cannot be wrong at the same time. Read Plato's Euryphro, and extend the argument past holiness to any two mutually exclusive ideas. If A = not B (right means not wrong), then A /= B.

No, you're wrong. But that would mean your right which would mean you're wrong. Damn, I've got a headache. :)

It is better than most fundie 'logic' :P
