Logic Test

24/8/2015

Today's resource suggestion is a simple logic test and the explanation concerning the results of that test.  "How Logical Are You?" is a short, simple video that explains what amounts to one of the foundations of Bertrand Russel's logic works.  These sorts of puzzles ought to be commonly known to people at large as, without them, illogical assumptions and prejudices become the cultural narrative.  I'm speaking less about racism and more about the inevitable rise of criminal and misanthropic institutions.

You can find the video here, on YouTube.  I got it right. I say this not to brag, but to prove that there is no excuse for not getting it right, if my dumb ass can.  If you don't get it right, that's fine; you can learn (with time and effort) how to think logically, too.
The rules to the puzzle may not be very clearly stated.  The cards have two sides.  The rules concerning "if one side is X, the other side is Y" refers to individual cards, not the set.  If you want a clue, I recommend hearkening back to what Karl Popper thinks about knowledge and how one increases certainty..

Also, while it sounds like the video poo-poos inductive reasoning, if you watch it all the way through, they clearly show the utility of induction, even if it isn't logic, per-se.
