in thread How do I know what I 'know' is right?

Every abstraction that is not a tautology contains some lie, and is therefore only applicable to some subset of all cases.

Such as..."all premises, major or minor, involved in the construction of a syllogism are lies".

Hmmm. Granted, deductive reasoning is only a subset of logic.
