Logic - at least rigorous logic - is much more limited in applicability than we'd like to believe.

Religion probably has the most influence over family structure, a topic where it's hard for me to imagine that logic would play a leading role.

Even science is pretty hard to justify with formal logic.

There's a pretty big gap between inductive reasoning (statistics) and deductive reasoning (formal logic), called the problem of induction. No logician or philosopher has come up with a widely accepted way to solve it in the roughly 200 years since David Hume started writing on the subject.
