The purpose of this paper is to present a paraconsistent formal system and a corresponding intended interpretation according to which true contradictions are not tolerated. Contradictions are, instead, epistemically understood as conflicting evidence, where evidence for a propositionAis understood as reasons for believing thatAis true. The paper defines a paraconsistent and paracomplete natural deduction system, called theBasic Logic of Evidence(BLE), and extends it to theLogic of Evidence and Truth(). The latter is a logic of formal inconsistency and undeterminedness that is able to express not only preservation of evidence but also preservation of truth.is anti-dialetheist in the sense that, according to the intuitive interpretation proposed here, its consequence relation is trivial in the presence of any true contradiction. Adequate semantics and a decision method are presented for bothBLEand, as well as some technical results that fit the intended interpretation.
