Do you have any justification for believing that. Is logic something that
exists
in its own right or is it just something that we've created and which looks
sensible because it happens to fit in with how our minds work?
I'm sure I've seen one or two references to books in which mathematicians
have idly speculated on that - though I can' t think of any references
off hand.
