Frame of Mind: Proof 5

Introduction

Today we're going to prove that the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything is indeed 42. But not just because it's a nice round number, no, no, no. It's because we've got the math to back it up.

We'll be using a combination of rigorous logical deduction, obscure mathematical proofs, and a healthy dose of madness to show that the answer is, in fact, 42.

So, let's get started!

Proof 5: The Transcendental Theorem

We begin by assuming that the answer is not 42, and then we use a series of cleverly constructed logical fallacies to prove that it must, in fact, be 42.

Step 1: Assume the opposite of what we want to prove.

Step 2: Use a logical fallacy to show that our assumption is incorrect.

Step 3: Repeat steps 1 and 2 until we've proven our point.
