"What the Tortoise Said to Achilles" by Lewis Carroll: http://www.ditext.co...l/tortoise.html

 

What exactly is wrong with the logic here? Is anything wrong at all?

 

What I gather from that story, is that if you do not accept the axioms of logic, then you are not forced to accept an argument's conclusion from its premises.
