... requires repetition of the premise by it's very definition.

If you get some time, I'd reccomend checking out the PHIL 2303 course at
SAC and snagging Mr. Shirahama if he's available.  Tough course, but a good
skill for anyone doing any sort of critical thinking to have.  Looking
up fancy names on wikipedia just isn't a good substitute.
