Hello CC,

Is it just "If the car is red, then the car is red"? I think I'm having trouble understanding why this would even be necessary to point out and use as a necessary law. What does it mean that "without this law, identity or sameness is lost"?

"If the car is red, then the car is red" is precisely what it means. It is not unlike saying that everything is what it is. I know it is rude to answer a question with a question, but please indulge me. Why is it important to acknoweldge the law of non-contradiction or excluded middle?
