Begin with what is known.
Proceed to reasoning about what is unknown
Based on first principles.
"All men are mortal.
Socrates is a man.
Therefore Socrates is mortal."
Keep your eyes open.
Determine the truth for yourself
Using the gift of your huge brain.
Reason and logic can guide you
if you will start with what is known
and reason from there.
Spin can't touch first principles.
What are your first principles? What is given?
