Logic: The Only Game in Town

Abstract

This article reviews the nature of investigations, demonstrations, and decisions in the propositional process of logic. Limitations in decision-making are related to the propositions asked. A difference between criminal trials and civil trials exists in the basis of the propositions involved. The ability to create new propositions, i.e., compromises, is the means to adjustment and resolution of conflicts. In general, people do not “communicate”; they demonstrate propositions. To communicate, the need for the sender to be “tuned” to the receiver, consistent with theory and reality, is seen as based on the propositional process of logic.
