The world isn't exactly a place of black and white logic; it's full of emotions, strong memories, and gut feelings. Well, I guess that all depends on what you're trying to convince a person of. I said the world isn't a cold cut place of logic, but facts are, such as in mathematics.
I think logic has very little to do with the actual convincing of a person. Sure, people can be convinced by it, but if someone is stubborn on a point, nothing will change them of that. Infact, a rule of spite will make them believe it more...again this all depends on what someone is convincing the other person to believe or do.

Perhaps the logic is your own perception of it? Failing to "convince" a person is neither failure of your logic, nor of theirs.
This isn't the correct quote, but may explain part of what I mean.
A person convinced against their will is of the same opinion still.
Logic isn't necessarily absolute.

It incredibly relies upon on the argument. i visit think of you have formulated a logical argument that would not fall into fallacy. Now if some one remains unconvinced it would desire to be that your declare is previous or conflicts with that person undemanding adventure. That they stay rationally skeptical in spite of a valid argument approximately that declare. Or it would desire to be the case that the guy in question isn't conscious methodical reasoning and the axioms that are employed to shield logical integrity. additionally we stumble on that some philosophers have supplied discourse critiquing good judgment and induction. So it would additionally be the case that the guy in question is an epistemological nihilist or an absurdest skeptic.

To convince of what and who. You have what you have learned of logic and they have what they have, there's your logic. Is that enough information to answer your question? Of course not and therefor I am unconvinced. Your logic is supposed to be in your head. I am not prepared to answer a question needing an infinite answer.

solid proof. and or a better point then the opposing idea...
the logic is in the facts (true or false facts that is)
