A premise is the fact or supposition upon which a chain of logic is based. If it is true, and logic (reasoning) is correctly applied, then the conclusion reached by the chain of logic is also true. When you negate the premise, you show that the premise is not true and that, therefore, the conclusion is not true, or at the least, has not been demonstrate to be true.
