14.1
The concept of Logos
  Earlier we discussed the Prime Idea of Logic, the system of thinking, categorization and argument created over two and a half thousand years ago. We also discussed how this prime idea of thinking, rules of classification and argument underpins almost the entire structure of human knowledge and education on Earth.
  We now see clearly that there are other methods of thinking, classification and argument that exist, such as multi-valency. That real word examples point toward the concept of multi-valance ("everything is a matter of degree") as being a more precise model of thinking, classification and argument than logic.
  However, without an alternative formal system of thinking, classification and argument to consider, the observations of multi-valency do not necessarily provide substantial benefit.
  LOGOS therefore is a formal system of absolutes, thinking, classification and argument that represents the fundamental absolutes, thinking, classification and argument system of UCA and the Universe.
  The word Logos is used to define this formal system in respect to the original meanings of the word and its heritage as the basis upon which the word "logic" was created. As such Logos precedes the word Logic. 4.9.1 The structure of LOGOS
  The structure of LOGOS
  LOGOS is based upon a series of statements of relationships between the Primus DA's called the "Absolute DIA's" with primus meaning "first" and DIA representing the meaning of a "statement constructed of two or more DA's".
  A founding principle of LOGOS is that these relationships between Primus DA do not change under any circumstance. As such they represent a sent of constant "prime ideas".
  The Absolute DIA's are then divided into categories, according to their specific reference in respect of creation and meaning:
  1. UCADIA - The Constant Prime Ideas based around the prime idea of UCA
  2. UNIDIA- The Constant Prime Ideas based around the prime idea of the Universe
  3. CORDIA- The Constant Prime Ideas based around the prime idea of life.
  We will outline the categories of UNIDIA and CORDIA later in the book, after we have outlined a number of concepts. However, we have discussed enough to outline the first category of Absolute DIA's- the UCADIA:
  By providing practical examples of the principles of Logos in motion, we hope that these principles will become more familiar and potentially useful for the reader's own applications.
