Hey Joe, Yes, I am using "prove" as it pertains to logical construction. The point was, as I think you said, that ultimately such logic is based on Trust (if we read it in a book beit the bible or a school science text or whether we hear it from a preacher or some Nobel laureate.)
I suppose it becomes faith if we don't need anyone to tell us such things (like quality). The sense of quality comes from the emotional (as you use it). From Quality comes reason. For example, you know you like something, then you have to put together a bunch of words to justify that liking otherwise it will seem that you are not basing your "like" on your intellect. In today's world liking something without then adding words seems trivial. Metaphysics does not answer questions, it creates them, just like science. In my view.
