*bump*
Seeing as this got burried, I thought I'd finally give the answer!
Phoenix - Aeon, remeber how I said you were close? While this is how close you were.
warranto's Rule of Arguements:
In order for an arguement to take place, it MUST fulfill the following requirement. The arguement must be made up of proofs of lesser strength. when arguing what causes rain, you argue about the air becoming saturated, or humidity levels (proofs of lesser strength). You don't bring up points such as the fact that Pluto orbits the sun (proofs of greater strength). Seeing as all the proofs are based on facts of reason, it must be concluded that reason is the basis of everything. The lowest form of a proof possible, so to speak. With this in mind, when arguing whether or not reason exists, you are arguing the lowest form of a proof. It is impossible to go any lower (a requirement for arguements), therefor negating the arguement as it is impossible to argue by means of a proof of lower strength. Hence an invalid question to argue in the first place. However, if you feel the need to break the rules and argue it, all rules governing the arguement must be disallowed as well. This includes the rule of "never beg the question".
