I.E. Some that is true just because of the grammar of the language it is stated in. All bachelors are unmarried, is a good example. For predictate calculus, something like: ((p -> q) ^ p) -> q is called a tautology. It is always true. Now, it may seem that this is a cop-out to someone looking for the 'Absolute Truth'; if you think about it, that is all there needs to be. attcatguuu means i am. tata jcz
