Incorrect.  Logic is (more or less) a human thing, and all our scientific 
understanding of the universe/multiverse are *models* of it, not the 
absolute truth.

A “tenant” is a person.  I think you mean “_tenet_” (foundation, theorem) 
instead.

Yet another crackpot publication that has nothing to do with the topic of 
this newsgroup, the theories of _relativity_ (_not_ “reality”).

No, it applies to *every* formal axiomatic system containing basic 
arithmetic instead.

You have no clue what you are talking about.  Please go away.
