You mis-quoted me Niin, at the bottom of your last statement.
I understand English is not your first language, so lets be considerate
When I say "Trees are Big" does that imply I mean all trees?
Don't I know that trees start out
small but grow big?
therefore Trees aren't always big, but I perceive trees to be big.
In a
deductive logic argument, the Truth or Falsehood of its conclusion does not determine the validity
or invalidity of an argument, Nor does the validity of an argument gaurantee the truth of its conclusion.
Ok, I confused myself
You make categorical propositions - which offer assertions about
classes - affirming or denying that one class is included in the other.
you then need to consider:
Posteriori -
* an arguement from effect to cause
* Knowledge based on experience
Priori -
* Argument from cause to effect
* Knowledge independant of experience
there is also
the universal - what is common to many different items (eg.
redness is common to all things
red (Trees need CO2)
The particular - Single, or individual, as distinct from class or universal.
"sometimes" (sometimes Trees are Big)
Does any of this make sense to you Niin?
because I am confused!
