    Superior<---->Equal<---->Inferior

    Better<---->the Same<---->Worse

    Equal<---->Differant<---->Not Equal
    e.g Male and female physically are not equal or unequal - just different.

    Difference cannot be used in the context of equality, which nullifies your third equation.

    Some equality cannot be measured because of simple difference s.a. how do we compare a blade of grass with an Insect?

    In reality the only thing in which we are equal is in our DIFFERENCE e.g. no to blades of grass are even alike. That is our true equality - not better not worse - but each of us are different. When we can accept difference and understand the causes of it then we will also have equality.

    And so why do you say argument is nullified?

    The intention is to nullify
    ....not X and not (-X)


    P = Equal (affirmation +)
    -P = Unequal (negation - )
    If something is both not (P) and not (- P)
    that is both: not equal - yet not unequal - it must be something else.

    Let P = Equal = 1

    = -1 + - (-1)
    = -1 + 1
    = 0

    So "something else" in this case is that it is simply "different".
