    If I understand this question correctly I think you are saying when something is contradicted the idea is flawed because the new idea discredits the old. I think flawed premises and contradictions are two separate things, in fact I believe a contradiction is a revelation which exposes a flawed premise.

    • I agree, flawed premises lead to a seeming contradiction. The contradiciton still doesn't exist, but finding the flawed premise will let you know which side of the contradiction is incorrect.
