I really don't know much about the difference between classic logic and Aristotle's logic... so I can't comment much. I would think that human reasoning is based off of propositional and predicate calculus and discrete math in general. I mean, our thoughts are a bunch of statements that eventually lead to a conclusion, right? But then, I have a simple mind and may not know enough to reason a very good comment. This is true. I mean... false. No, true! Or false?
You know what would be neat? We should see if we can tie any of this stuff to the gospel. How's 2nd Nephi 2:13 for a logical argument? Or, Alma 42:16-22 (or all of 42 for that matter). I guess these examples might not follow with the current topic very well (because I still don't reason it)... But still, I'd like to see ties to the gospel in comments. I think it'd be neat (since truth is found there also).
As for the wiki idea (or forum)... I think it makes a lot of sense. I mean, the conversations will probably be divided into separate topics and might be better displayed as such (separated). But then, it's also neat to see a stream line conversation published in the blog. I think it'd probably be a good idea to stick to the blog for now since blogger is easy to use, others are used to it, and a wiki site isn't immediately available (but can be created in the nearer than later future). Cool idea though - wikis are the future. A read and writable internets.
I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. My sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history, naval architecture, navigation, commerce and agriculture in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry, and porcelain.
-John Adams
