Replying to a comment on:

Dictionary Lesson (Free verse) by Dovina

When I said, “I love you,” and soon realized its reciprocal, “You love me,” and its result, “We are in love,” and much later, with its contrary, “I don’t love you,” and finally its opposite, “I hate you,” and when, after a long hiatus, its many reverses blured into, “I have no feeling for you,” I realized my dictionary is a history, written ahead of fact, a compendium of devolution.

You are very thick. Logic *isn't* part of philosophy. It's a class of symbol manipulation systems only some of which are sometimes used in philosophy. There are many logics that are used solely in non-philosophical subjects. In other words, 'doing logic' does not mean you are 'doing philosophy'. Not only did you not understand what I said, you still don't know what logic is. That's why I deleted that comment, because I anticipated this colossal gush of idiocy.

You also utterly don't understand what premises and conclusions are, probably because you can't read. Where has Dovina 'put forward' the premise "I love you"? SHE HASN'T. SHE HAS ONLY SAID THAT SHE SAID "I LOVE YOU."

Since you're thick, you won't understand. So here's an example. Compare these two.

1. Snow is green.
2. I said "Snow is green."

The first is false, the second is true. That's because in the first I am putting forward the premise that snow is green, but in the second I am simply reporting that I said that snow is green.

Dovina is simply reporting that she said and realised a series of things. She is not putting those things forward. Please think about this until you understand it, because otherwise you will post more wrong things.
