Is something similar to itself?

Is something similar to itself?

Making such a statement is redundant and unnecessarily time consuming. Amartya Sen argued that something is similar to itself is based on certain assumptions which may be equally considered redundant and unnecessarily time consuming. But the fact is that no statement can be made without assumptions.

1+1=2

Is this a joke? Questioning this is not just a waste of time, but insulting to our grey matter.

This is true. Put 1 in your right packet and count 1 in your right hand. What do you get? 2!!! Its as simple as that. What assumptions are we talking about here?

If we use binary number system, 1+1=10. Why is decimal system the most Earthly excepted calculating system anyway? I don't worry about this assumption anyway because since birth, I have been told to think this way. All existence have similar assumptions which hides the essence of the unknow.

I am not an atheist, I believe in assumptions.
