Assume also that the complete lack of proof was both possible and didn’t prove anything (in a paradoxical fashion). \n\nLogical Argument: \n\n{P, Q, R} |= (P & Q) <-> (R -> (P <-> Q))\n\nConclusion: {P, Q, R}: \n\nAll things are proof of something (and everything), in some way, and through some feasible valid argument, even the absurd hypothetical of the “complete lack of proof” (in the Cosmos). We can deduce this with certainty and prove it rigorously through the exploration of the assumption of the negation of the premises P and Q. \n\nThis assumption leads not only to the contradiction of logical rules but to the absurdity where “everything” did not include proof for everything or the conceivable/possible concept of everything being proof for everything (and each thing for each thing). \n\nIt also leads to the absurdity where you would have to deny this proof is this proof, which is tautological and irrefutable as a matter of identity and calculable logical structure, to accept “not Q”. \n\nThis shows why we must accept the premises and their conjunction to satisfy Logic and avoid contradiction - regardless of the positions and subjective views of any other school(s) of thought or individual(s). \n\nTherefore we can conclude that this conclusion not only follows necessarily from the premises “if” the premises are rationally accepted, but that the premises are themselves logical truths that cannot coherently be “rationally denied”.\n\nTruth Table Analysis: \n\nPQR⎪P Q R╞(P&Q)↔(R→(P↔Q))\n\nTTT⎪T T T  TTT T TT TTT  \nTTF⎪T T F  TTT T FT TTT  \nTFT⎪T F T  TFF T TF TFF  \nTFF⎪T F F  TFF F FT TFF  \nFTT⎪F T T  FFT T TF FFT  \nFTF⎪F T F  FFT F FT FFT  \nFFT⎪F F T  FFF F TT FTF  \nFFF⎪F F F  FFF F FT FTF  \n\nQ.E.D.",
