  18. Okay, I've changes ideas...again. I'm now thinking (and this is a rough idea, I've not yet figured out how to articulate this) "Must conclusions that are derived from faulty logic be considered false?"

    This kind of surfaced from thinking that two people may come to some of the same conclusions despite the fact that one persons logic conflicts with the other. Would then this person have to dispel the conclusion because they do not agree with the logic behind it?
