1. If B follows from A, then A contains B. If A = B then A can be substituted for B and B for A.
2. It follows from this that all logical propositions, all numbers, and all mathematical problems are tautological.
3. It follows from this that what I am writing is tautological.
4. It follows from this that I am a very witty and ironic fellow, or that I'm wrong.
5. Ignoring these difficulties, what follows is logical positivism—that is, despite my denial of induction and causality as a law of nature.
6. It follows from this that oh ****.
