Axiomatic?

The word 'axiom' is defined in the dictionary of my word processor software as ' a statement or idea that people accept as self-evidently true'. It would, no doubt, therefore be axiomatic to most people that my attraction towards boys is wrong and indefensible. However, there is a secondary definition of the word from mathematical logic of a proposition that is assumed to be true but is logically unproven, but still used to prove other propositions in the system. What if that assumption was wrong and able to be trumped by a further, incontrovertible piece of logic, another axiom? Love, perhaps?

Love & best wishes to all
