Diodorean Conditional

A Diodorean Conditional is a logical concept that captures the idea: "If the antecedent (the 'if' part) is true, then the consequent (the 'then' part) must also be true." It's based on the view that the conditional statement is true unless there's a clear reason to believe the antecedent is true while the consequent is false. In other words, if we can't find a situation where the first part happens but the second part doesn't, then the conditional is considered true. This approach emphasizes the importance of evidence supporting the connection between the two parts.
