Allow me to rephrase,
If Brother(Jack,John) And Father(Jack,James) are both true then, which of these would logically follow:
Father(John,James) or Uncle(John,James)
[/QUOTE]This is not a clearly thought out statement. You have two different variables from 2 different groups. It depends on how you program the relation.

It sounds like Brother(Jack,John) and Father(Jack,James) are asking about 2 different people in a relationship that could possibly be the same person if viewed from 2 different perspectives. IE My brother is your father, which would make me your uncle. Is that what you are looking for? If that is the case:

If Brother(John,James) & Father(Jack,James)
Then
Subvariable(unspecified)=Uncle(defined) ;Uncle(John,James)
Else
Subvariable(unspecified)=Uncle(undefined) ; Not = Uncle(John,James)
