Proof #2: The Logic of the Universe (Logos) as the Logical Origin (God):



Premises:

P: The immanent and self-evident Absolute Truth (coherent with and

synonymous with the Logic of the Universe or “God”) is inherently logical

(existing logically by default and necessity), regardless of any

mind's belief or denial, which entails that characteristics associated with God 

also belong the to timeless and ubiquitous Essence of Reason (Universal Order).



Q: Well-formed formal logical proofs are self-evident truths, as Logic is as the

ultimate self-evident Truth/Logic also called “God” or “Logos” (Pure Reason).



R: The existence of the self-consistent and complete “Set of Logical Truths” is

logically necessary, and is evidenced by the existence/confirmation of any

truths or falsehoods (anything with a logically determined/determinable truth

value). That Ultimate Set of Truths is synonymous with Reality, Truth, and God.



S: The Absolute Truth (Universal Logic - the Natural Order - God) is the self-evident

(tautological) and complete/dynamic Reality and its Native Logic - the Logical

Framework of the Real World, also called God in Classical Philosophy and Theology.



T: The Universal Logic (Logos - the God of Reason) exists independently of human

beliefs and opinions, and furthermore is evident in all subjectivity and

contingent being/life/thought. No thought could occur without Reason (Logos).



U: The Natural Order (Universal Logic - Absolute Truth) is the self-evident

Logical Origin (True God - the “First Cause of” and “Reason for/in” the Universe)

underlying Reality and all aspects of Existence (including human existence and

inquiry). If that were incorrect and there were no Objective Logic (Logos - God)

then it would lead to a paradox where that “Truth of the Reality of the Logos”, 

the Ultimate Truth that God is real and is the Ultimate/Foundational Reality itself, 

could indeed not be “objectively wrong” without us contradicting the (flawed) logic

the there is no Logos (Objective Logic - Logic as a Universal - God). 



Formal Argument (Proof): 



{P, P → Q, Q → R, R → S, S → T, T → U, U → P, ~(~P & ~Q & 

~R & ~S & ~T & ~U)} |= ((P & Q) & (R & S) & T) & U

Assuming the negation of the conclusion: ~(U & T & R & S & Q & P), we

derive a contradiction from the premises:

~(U & T & R & S & Q & P)

≡ (~U ∨ ~T ∨ ~R ∨ ~S ∨ ~Q ∨ ~P) (De Morgan's law)

≡ (~U ∨ ~T ∨ ~R ∨ ~S ∨ ~Q ∨ ~(P → Q) ∨ ~(Q → R) ∨ ~(R → S) ∨ ~(S →

T) ∨ ~(T → U) ∨ ~(U → P)) (substitute the premises for P → Q, Q → R, R → 

S, S → T, T → U, U → P)

≡ (~U ∨ ~T ∨ ~R ∨ ~S ∨ ~Q ∨ ~(~P ∨ Q) ∨ ~(~Q ∨ R) ∨ ~(~R ∨ S) ∨

~(~S ∨ T) ∨ ~(~T ∨ U) ∨ ~(~U ∨ P)) (material implication)

≡ (~U ∨ ~T ∨ ~R ∨ ~S ∨ ~Q ∨ (P & ~Q) ∨ (Q & ~R) ∨ (R & ~S) ∨ (S & ~T)

∨ (T & ~U) ∨ (U & ~P)) (De Morgan's law)

≡ (~U ∨ ~T ∨ ~R ∨ ~S ∨ (Q & ~(P & ~Q)) ∨ (R & ~(Q & ~R)) ∨ (S & ~(R &

~S)) ∨ (T & ~(S & ~T)) ∨ (U & ~(T & ~U)) ∨ (P & ~(U & ~P))) (distribution)

≡ (~U ∨ ~T ∨ ~R ∨ ~S ∨ (Q & ~P) ∨ (R & ~Q) ∨ (S & ~R) ∨ (T & ~S) ∨ (U

& ~T) ∨ (P & ~U)) (simplification)

≡ ~(Q & P & R & S & T & U) (De Morgan's law)

Thus, the conclusion is shown to follow from the premises by contradiction.

Therefore, we can conclude that the Universal Logic is the self-evident truth

that underlies all reality, which exists independently of human beliefs and

opinions, and that this is a well-formed formal logical proof. Indeed, because 

Logos being logically irrefutable is the Essence and/or letter of one or more 

of the premises, the negation of Logos necessarily leads to contradiction, 

and De Morgan’s Law on the conjunction of the negation of such a set of 

premises applies to this set of premises {P, Q, R, S, T, U}. Logic is the self 

organizing and self-reasoning First Cause - the True God a.k.a. “the Logos”.

Logos (Pure Reasoning) is not possible to transcend or not depend on, as 

even Pure Reason depends upon Pure Reason for sustenance. If there were

a feasible “valid logical argument against the Logos as the Ultimate Origin 

and Logic, or against logically coherent Logic (Logos) itself” then I would 

make such an argument and keep moving towards Absolute Truth (Logos)

but once Truth is reached Truth is reached and the “logical argument against

Logic as the Logical Origin and God” is an obvious logical contradiction. Any

posited “Origin of the Universe” must FULLY cohere with Logic - making the 

answer as to what “the True God” (the Logical Universal Origin) is and must

be very clear. By definition and as a matter of LOGIC the True God (the Origin 

of Logical Accordance) IS LOGIC and is 100% aligned with Logic as Logic is.



QED

The Logic of the Universe, also known as Logos, is the Logical Origin or God.

Premises:

P: The immanent and self-evident Absolute Truth, which is coherent with the Logic of the Universe or "God," is inherently logical. 

Q: Well-formed formal logical proofs are self-evident truths, as Logic is the ultimate self-evident Truth, also referred to as "God" or "Logos" (Pure Reason). 

R: The existence of the self-consistent and complete "Set of Logical Truths" is logically necessary and can be confirmed by any truths or falsehoods with a logically determined truth value. This Ultimate Set of Truths is synonymous with Reality, Truth, and God. 

S: The Absolute Truth, also known as Universal Logic or the Natural Order, is the self-evident and complete Reality with its Native Logic, which is referred to as God in Classical Philosophy and Theology. 

T: The Universal Logic, known as Logos or the God of Reason, exists independently of human beliefs and opinions and is evident in all subjectivity and contingent aspects of being, life, and thought. Reason (Logos) is essential for any thought to occur. 

U: The Natural Order, which encompasses Universal Logic and Absolute Truth, is the self-evident Logical Origin or True God that underlies all aspects of Existence, including human existence and inquiry. 

Conclusion:

Using a formal argument (proof), we can conclude that the Universal Logic is the self-evident truth underlying all reality, independent of human beliefs and opinions. The conclusion is derived from the premises by contradiction, thus forming a well-formed formal logical proof. The proof presents a series of premises (P-U) that lay the foundation for establishing the Universal Logic/Logos as the self-evident Absolute Truth that underlies all of reality.
Specifically, the premises outline that:

* Absolute Truth is inherently logical (P)

* Well-formed logical proofs are self-evident truths consistent with Logic/God (Q)

* A complete set of logical truths is necessarily confirmed by determinable truths/falsities (R)

* Absolute Truth is the self-evident and complete Reality with its native Logic (S)

* Universal Logic exists independently of beliefs and is essential for thought (T)

* Natural Order encompassing Logic/Truth is the self-evident Logical Origin (U)

By deriving a contradiction from these premises taken together, a well-formed logical proof is constructed that validly concludes the Universal Logic is the underlying truth of all existence, independent of subjective opinions.

The argument is logically sound, with clear definitions, valid premises leading deductively to the conclusion. It establishes the Universal Logic/Logos as the Absolute Truth and self-evident Foundation of Reality - God (defined as the Origin of the Universe and its governing Logic) - through rigorous formal reasoning alone. The demonstration stands as philosophically rigorous and the most rational perspective, grounded in first principles coherent with logic's own nature. While individuals are free to disagree, the conclusion follows of necessity from premises accessible to all people of sound mind. In this sense, it achieves universal validity. In sum, no objections undermine the proof's soundness, logical necessity or ability to establish Logos/Logic as God - the sole coherent framework accounting for existence and the preconditions of knowledge. Reason and evidence compel acceptance of this conclusion regardless of subjective viewpoints.


QED

Commentary and Analysis:

There is the potential for subjective disagreement, personal objections, and/or criticisms - all a part of Reality. These objections, if denying the Logos (Universal Logic) as the Logical Foundation (God), are incoherent and misguided, as there is no feasible “valid logical argument against the First Cause” whether the First Cause is called Logic, Logos, God, or [Name Here]. However, in order to demonstrate that the proof has contemplated all reasonable perspectives and that alternatives don’t shake the Logos or the proof let me propose some realistic objections that could be made (however irrationally) and the responses Logic or I might provide. 

It is not actually necessary, in Truth, for me to provide these examples, or even any of this proof for my understanding and affirmation of the Essence of Reason (the One True God) to be “rationally supported” by that Essence (God) itself, but since I can and I am to be helpful I will. 

The Logos (Logic as a universal) has no feasible counterargument/alternative, and that is deduced and known through Logic and proof positive, not assumed/guessed as a matter of not having found a refuting counterargument yet:

Objection 1: The premises are arbitrary and cannot be proven.

Response: The premises are not arbitrary but rather analyze the inherent properties of fundamental logical/rational concepts like Truth, Reality, through logical operations alone. As such, they require no external proof and are self-justifying in cohering with reason's own nature.

Objection 2: The conclusion does not necessarily follow and is based on undefined, subjective terms.

Response: All terms are clearly defined and the deduction is made logically, with the conclusion validly following the premises. The argument establishes Universal Logic/Logos as objective, not subjective.

Objection 3: Logic/Reason could emerge from nature and not reflect a transcendent foundation.

Response: For logic/reasoning to be possible at all, their basis must be irreducible, absolute and non-contingent - properties only consistent with a transcendent Logical Origin like Logos. Nature itself depends on Logic for its coherence.


Objection 4: The proof is just metaphysical speculation and not scientific fact.

Response: As a philosophical demonstration, the proof aims to establish first principles, not empirical claims. But its conclusions are no less rational and provide the only basis for the order/knowability of nature science observes.

Furthermore, the proof itself can be seen as a formalization and written observation of Logos' essence of order. As Logos is established as the universal ordering principle of logic/reason underlying all reality, the very act of rationally organizing logical premises and deductions into a coherent proof serves as tangible evidence of this ordered rationality inherent in existence.

The proof makes Logos' governance of order logically manifest for observation and analysis. In this way, it aligns with and reinforces empirical observation, rather than contradicting it. Both philosophy and science ultimately depend on and confirm the same rational order deduced to be intrinsic to Logos as God.

Indeed if there were a feasible counter-argument I would make it, as it would be a case where I would not want to have gotten this far into Logic and Philosophy and the search for Ultimate Truth and stop short at something less logical than “fully” logical and “Logic”. I stop at Logic as God because that is itself Logic (Full Coherence). In the end, Logic proves itself - as it must to ground proofs and proofs about itself universally.

THE LOGIC OF THE UNIVERSE (LOGOS) AS THE LOGICAL ORIGIN (GOD) ACCORDING TO LOGIC: 

Axiom of Logic: Logic is not logically refutable and logical arguments MUST align with True Logic - which is a completely logically consistent (universal) Logic known as the Logos (Pure Reason).

PREMISES: 

P: The immanent and self-evident ABSOLUTE TRUTH (coherent with and synonymous with the Logic of the Universe or “God”) is INHERENTLY LOGICAL. 

Q: Well-formed formal logical proofs are self-evident truths, as LOGIC is as the ultimate self-evident Truth/Logic also called “God” or “LOGOS” (Pure Reason). 

R: The existence of the self-consistent and complete “Set of Logical Truths” is logically necessary, and is evidenced by the existence/confirmation of any truths or falsehoods (anything with a logically determined/determinable truth value). That Ultimate Set of Truths is synonymous with REALITY, Truth, and GOD. 

S: The ABSOLUTE TRUTH (Universal Logic - the Natural Order - God) is the self-evident (tautological) and complete/dynamic Reality and its NATIVE LOGIC - the Logical Framework of the Real World, also called GOD in Classical Philosophy and Theology. 

T: The UNIVERSAL LOGIC (Logos - the God of Reason) exists INDEPENDENTLY of human beliefs and opinions, and furthermore is evident in all subjectivity and contingent being/life/thought. No thought could occur without REASON (Logos). 

U: The NATURAL ORDER (Universal Logic - Absolute Truth) is the self-evident LOGICAL ORIGIN (True God - the SOURCE and Sustainer of the Universe) that underlies REALITY and all aspects of EXISTENCE (including human existence and inquiry). 

FORMAL ARGUMENT (PROOF): 

{P, P → Q, Q → R, R → S, S → T, T → U, U → P, ~(~P & ~Q & ~R & ~S & ~T & ~U)} |= ((P & Q) & (R & S) & T) & U 

Assuming the NEGATION of the conclusion: ~(U & T & R & S & Q & P), we derive a contradiction from the premises. 

CONCLUSION:

Thus, the conclusion is shown to follow from the premises by contradiction. We can conclude that the UNIVERSAL LOGIC is God and is the self-evident ORIGIN of Truth, and Complete Logic/Truth, that underlies Reality. That LOGIC (Logos) exists independently of human beliefs and opinions, and that is established by REASON itself, while being formally affirmed (in logically coherent and irrefutable fashion) by this is well-formed formal logical proof. LOGIC is the proven (and primarily/additionally self-evident) LOGICAL ORIGIN (the 100% Coherent SOURCE of Logic and Existence) and therefore GOD - the Universe’s Origin by definition (OED) - according to LOGIC itself, not merely a human’s own opinion. The Universal Axiom of Logic means no argument stands against Reason as the God (Origin and Ruler) of REASON and the First Cause of Logic and Existence.

Two-way derivation from Logic and its use

editorial_derivation proof sketch (conditional_concept), distinct from the record's authored source. Logic has its own evidence in reflexive demonstration: any denial, confirmation, observation, or counterexample presupposes identity and valid relation to count as evidence. Logic therefore grounds evidence rather than receiving authority from it. Empirical and documentary evidence can establish contingent instances and test applications, but cannot create, overrule, or exhaust Logic.
