It is simply not possible to reason with someone whose reasoner is

Can you prove that?

* A person whose reasoner is broken cannot reason (definition of
"broken.") * To reason with another person requires that the other
person be able to reason (definition of "with.")
* .: It is not possible to reason with someone whose reasoner is
broken (simple deduction.)

How'd I do, Bart? ;)


You've built him a fair trap. If he's convinced by your
reasoning, then he has to concede the point. If he's
not convinced by your reasoning, then we have more
evidence.
