Definition of truth

Truth states a state of truth based on matter of facts/premises; that is, it is done by the formula "IF A THEN B," where A is the premise and B is the outcome/prediction. That is to say, if A is true, it is sufficient to show that B is true. However, given "NOT B then NOT A," A becomes a necessary condition for B to become true within established relationship. So, you can only disprove a truth/true statement by showing the incongruity of the premises, that is, lack of integrity and/or incomplete; the rest of arguments are only "argumentative. In an economic sense, but maybe it's more essential: True is what has been produced and will be consumed. Han de Bruijn I intended to cross-post this thread with rec.skiing.alpine, which I am now correcting. |

Han de Bruijn I intended to cross-post this thread with rec.skiing.alpine, which I am now correcting.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Truth (1968) was the first full-length album by Jeff Beck and his backing group. The album featured three original songwriting collaborations between Jeff Beck and Rod Stewart, "Let Me Love You", "Blues Deluxe", and "Rock My Plimsoul". I'm listening to the truth right now! ....and it doesn't sound anything like Itchy! ;-) |

Are you a pro? IS |
