Added link to related Phil.SE questions, and enhanced my language argument with Chomsky's input on the crucial role of grammar.

| Dec 18, 2015 at 4:36 | comment | added | sourcepov | Ok, I suppose I should defer, but I did some more digging, and found Noam Chomsky had some ideas on this (attributing the ability for inductive reasoning to newborns .. and kittens, by the way). @MoziburUllah do you find the language argument as a prerequisite for understanding and deductive reasoning not a factor in this? | |
| Dec 17, 2015 at 4:20 | comment | added | Mozibur Ullah | But it's unsurprising that the gist of the question wasn't caught, as the question was short and ambiguous; I'd probably say born with, as opposed to born into. | |
