Most of us believe that 3+4 must equal 7 becasue that is what was taught years and years ago, and therefore if the answer is not 7, it is wrong and therefore an illogical statement.

Yeah, I knew some people would pick holes in that paticular example, partially because it really doesn't have very much relevince whatsoever. To clarify, I should have just erased that entire section and replaced it with something along the lines of "Logic may be interperated differently by different people", as that makes a lot more sense and doesn't take as long to type. Wish I thought of that last night :-)
