I'd like it more if I could remember anything from Set theory; damn it's been a while!

Uh.. but surely (B[ƒ]⇒¬D[ƒ])∧(D[ƒ]⇒¬B[ƒ]) ..?

The excluded middle-path? :) Law of the excluded agnostic?

Faiths are 'fuzzy' logic (to say the least). They're neither necesarily transitive nor intransitive, probably cos they are solely human (no empirical interference in *that* crazy world) so they can break whatever rules they like.

Aristotle teaching Logic:

A - So Jesus was a prophet?
Man - Yes.
A - And he said he was the son of God?
Man - Yes.
A - And prophets speak the infallible word of God?
Man - Er, yes?
A - So you have faith that he was the son of God?
Man - Er......no.
A - Okay, two plates of aporia to table five, please.

p.s. Is (not)B[f] equivalent to D[f]? (Like fun it is)

f is a faith, which you've defined as a set of beliefs (subset of B), rather than a belief. What is your definition of "believe" for a set of beliefs?
