Now that we are confronted with many logics - fuzzy, paraconsistent, quantum etc. and are also confronted with the paradoxical quantum phenomena present in Bell's theorem, the EPR paradox, etc. does this not remove any authority or certainty from even the simplest logical theorems? Especially as the simplest and seemingly certain laws such as the law of non-contradiction are breached by such phenomena, how is it that we continue to work with logic, the laws for which are unfounded other than by a certain cognitive intuition of reason and understanding, and treat them as universal and capable of revealing truth? I suppose my question then, is really, how do contemporary analytic philosophers view logic
/ do they view it as objective and immutable, or subjective and uncertain, and hence pretty weak?
