   Because you are assuming that the statement "my logic is not real" is   
   real. Therefore you are granting the existence of things which can be   
   real. And if you can do this, why can't I?

   Are you trying to argue logically?

   Is this statement objectively true? If so, it is itself part of the   
   objective reality you say must be pulled out of a hat.
