Is it possible to have distinct implications from the existence of only one axiom?
epkid08 said:I know what you mean, but wouldn't you need an axiom that allows you to "combine" the axioms into one logical statement.
Anywho let me be more specific to dodge your problem then, assume you have only one axiom, the axiom of extensionality from ZFC. Can any truly distinct implications be concluded from this axiom?

Logic is the study of reasoning and argumentation. It involves identifying and analyzing patterns of reasoning in order to determine whether arguments are valid or invalid.
Proofs are a series of logical steps that demonstrate the validity of an argument or claim. They are used to show that a statement or theorem is true based on a set of axioms, definitions, and previously proven statements.
To construct a logical argument, you must first identify and clearly state your premises (the statements or evidence that support your argument). Then, you must use deductive reasoning to draw a conclusion that logically follows from your premises.
Inductive reasoning involves using specific observations or evidence to form a general conclusion. Deductive reasoning, on the other hand, starts with a general principle or rule and applies it to specific cases to draw a conclusion.
An argument is considered valid if the conclusion logically follows from the premises. This means that if the premises are true, the conclusion must also be true. To determine the validity of an argument, you can use logical rules and techniques such as truth tables, Venn diagrams, or formal proof systems.
