Another non-answer to my post.  Abian seems to ignore anything he can't
answer to.  I've made my post shorter this time, so you can respond. 

Abian, your logic is the same logic as the
argument I used to prove all dogs are cats, viz.


---
THE IDENTIFICATION OF THE MOST BASIC, MOST FUNDAMENTAL AND THE MOST PRIMAL
CHARACTERISTIC BEHIND ANY CAT, KITTEN, MOGGY, FELINE, LION, CHEETAH, TABBY,
PANTHER, AND THE ENTIRE FELINE FAMILY as my principle (A6)

(A6) THE PRIMAL FEATURE OF A CAT IS HAVING FOUR LEGS

I repeat again I cannot give a precise definition of "LEGS", yak, yak, ...

The overwhelming ... yell hysterically

"Abian, verify your (A6), give us experimental verifications!"

my reply is


" You people, your pet cats are my best verification of (A6) ... I am
shaking the foundations of anatomy and evolution ... AND YOUR CATS STILL
HAVE FOUR LEGS!!!"

And I have used this to prove, as I have said ten times before,

(A7) ALL DOGS ARE CATS

MY (A6) Has been verified far more than any other axioms: I could bring you
hundreds of CATS, but I DONT HAVE THE TIME!!!  ACCEPT (A6)!! NO OTHER
WAY!!

Some say that my (A7) is contradictory, because DOGS are not CATS.  Well I
say this just DEMONSTRATES the POWER of (A6), that it can prove that DOGS
are CATS and that DOGS are not CATS!!

CHARLES DE GAULLE had a MALE CAT with FOUR LEGS!

GENERAL PETAIN HAD a FEMALE CAT WITH FOUR LEGS!

SEE the POWER IN (A6)!!!!

Until Abian comes up with some new type of logic, he's going to be "the person
who thought that all dogs are cats".

Abian: a challenge.  Either prove that my logic is faulty or accept that
all dogs are cats.  Whatever argument you use to prove my argument is
faulty, I can apply it to your usage of (A3) or (A1) or whatever...
