An example would be: “Nothing can both be and not be at the same time and in the same respect.” Such axioms are often employed in philosophy, as well as in mathematics and geometry, where they are sometimes called postulates.
1 = 1? How do we know? Because it is axiomatic. It is much easier to prove that 2 comes after 1 because we rely on the axiom that 1 = 1. I always hated my mathematics professor. He was no philosopher he was a self-important asshole.
