So, in asking you to consider the processes of reasoning we are not assuming that you never have reasoned——on the contrary we are fully aware that you in conncetion with every other person, have reasoned all your mature life.
Does it mean together with other people or like other people?
It could mean together with, or like most other people... Together with implies a sort of group activity while like expresses the situation as it is, of a common activity carried on individually.... Thought as an activity does not only connect all human beings, since our equality is a point we cannot prove and yet reason upon, as a predicate, or an axium, but this is true even of children who reason after a fashion... The true difference between the thought of children and adults is the advanced state of identity in adults, what is commonly called conservation.... It seems children learn primarily through syllogism, which works toward definitions of identities... But I am uneducated is such matters as in all others... Ignorance is my main connection to all other people...
