Human beings have always been capable of philosophy and logic without ever emulating anybody in particular.
Maybe. But if so, Aristotle explained, for the first time...
Like any human being, he spoke from his perspective and ideas.
No, he analyzed what logic is, and how it has to be formed. Only somebody who doesn't understand logic would think it was just "his perspective an ideas." It was no more that than mathematics or science is. It was analysis of the basic structure of rational thought.

GLORY BE to all that Immanuel Can follows and worships! It is the only truth! It is all there is! It must be so! The desperation of such zealots demands it! :lol: :lol:
