It is used in science and proofs of proofs in maths, taking an example:

Hypothesis: Bananas are red.

(There exists) x x (is an element of) Red (and) Banana

Banana (implies) Red

(not) Red (implies) (not) Banana

If a yellow banana is found,

(There exists) y y(is an element of)Banana (therefore) y(is an element of) Red

There is a contradiction, as the banana must be red, but it is yellow.

The above is not the only use, but Boolean algebra exclusively contains symbols of (not), (and), and (or).

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
