Give me a break. Do I need to supply you with the definitions of every
word and allowable inference rules too? Do me a favour and supply your
own reasonable set of axioms.

Either that, or you won't (or cannot) admit you're wrong. Logic *can*

trust in you. Maybe you just don't recognize logic when you see it.
