Intellectual debate were the leading theory is logical and stimulate intellectual debate logic is sent to clean up the doctrine and sublimation. Intellectual debate theory and logic to send the unity of opposites, is a logical development. Analysis of intellectual debate and logical contradictions were penetration theory, revealing the development of mechanisms and laws of logic, there are important philosophical and cultural significance. Both Chinese Dialecticians and Western Sophists are wonderful work in the history of logic in the world. They are same in paradox expression of speech, double arguments in thinking way, and reductio ad absurdum argument to refute way. The doctrine of the Dialecticians and the Sophists is a precursor and stimulate to logic, and logic is a screening, modification and sublimation to their doctrine. The unity of opposites between the Dialecticians 'and Sophists' theory and logic provides a driving force for development to logic. There are important philosophical and cultural significance to analyse the contradiction between the Dialecticians 'and Sophists', theory and logic to reveal the mechanisms and laws of logical development
