Syllogisms

Aristotle's law of non-contradiction states that:

"One cannot say of something, that it is, and that it is not, in the same respect, and at the same time."

It either is, or it isn't, true or false,yes or no.

There are usually four (4) logical answers to every proposition,all are, or none are, some are or some are not,so it can be:

All A are B
No A are B
Some A are B
Some A are not B

All, none, some are one thing, and some are the other thing that is being compared and contrasted in propositional logic.

Predicate Logic

Compares the Quality and Quantity and its Affect and Effect.

Modal Logic

Compares : What it, (a thing) really is, in its substance, in its means, method, system, its way and manner of being.

                  Aristotle

                   ~Krista Kaufman

If A is this, and B is that, then C is what syllogism, and D questions the facts, makes the proposition, does the elements of A and B agree or contradict in reality?
