| Definition Of: |
ABSURDITY
[L:62] An error obvious to the common understanding; of someone who cannot be made to recognize the underlying falsity, "he is preposterous...nothing more can be done for him. He has thereby made himself both incapable and unworthy of all further correction and refutation....One cannot actually prove to anyone that he is absurd; here all arguing would be in vain."
