You're all wrong. Logic is the cerebral process of mensuration. A logical derivation is not necessarily true. The thoughts that we have about the things that interest us are based on empirical input. The logical result is sometimes true, sometimes not true, it depends on the information which the process of mensuration concludes. It works like this: we have a limited amount of information about a topic and we are required to deduce an unknown variable or more in order to make a statement about that topic. If the empirical data are true then there is a high probability that the logical conclusion is also true and we wil have deduced the unkowns from our data. If the data are tainted with one or more untruths, then we are more likely to draw an erroneous logical conclusion. Either way, we will still have derived a logical statement from the given set of data. Our thoughts are not always conscious. In fact, a very complex idea about which a book could be written can be encapsulated into a single engram which is stored into our memory. By way of example, a poster we shall call Mike5 often provides us with a good example of a condensed stream of communication which in his mind is encapsulated by a single engram, and virtually impossible to communicate in a single paragraph. That's why he writes books.
