"Identical" is a strange wording that's prone to confusion due to different people's understanding of what that exactly entails. That's why most philo...
"no matter what" - can you really say that? You have the thing to convince me, your textbook, and you said you'd post pictures of it. You haven't done...
Wanting to see the pictures of the textbook is psychological bias . This is too fucking funny. I can just picture it. He's sat in his room, flipping t...
so how can you tell the difference between someone willing to accept truths and someone unwilling? I mean, we're all wrong about some things, right? S...
Even when we DO have a unified language we can't find universal agreement. https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/comment/889798 We have a unified ...
That in no way proves your logic is correct. notP still does not necessitate notQ. What do you mean "good point"? You've just disregarded what he said...
it's not irrelevant because you keep using the same Fallacy. "Nothing more to discuss with you" is a funny way of saying "I looked in my books and cou...
Three people in here who think it's a fallacy, only you who can't find it in your book thinks it's not. I have linked documents from Stanford and Oxfo...
If I'm holding a flower, I'm holding a plant. I'm not holding a flower. Therefore I'm not holding a plant. Does that argument make sense to you? It do...
No, not okay. It's the same Fallacy. Why are you insisting on the same Fallacy when you know it's not in your textbook? When you know Stanford univers...
The part where you're continuing to apply the exact same argument, which you erroneously call modus ponens, even though you know it's a fallacy. Here....
you introduced your modified "modus ponens" all on your own. Despite your failure to find any supporting pages, you're STILL using your own fallacious...
Mad props for telling the truth, that you looked and can't find it. I respect that, and did not expect it. Do you think it's possible that it's not a ...
Because the people implementing them didn't think about all the cases. There are usually edge cases they didn't think of, or interactions between feat...
Please save this argument for after you post the pictures from your textbook. Your argument will hold more weight then - or it will disintegrate, depe...
There is. Post the textbook. I've literally described to you the exact thing you can do to change my belief. Show where in your textbook Modus Ponens ...
We don't have to agree to disagree. You have a textbook. I like textbooks. I trust textbooks. If you are correct, you can convince me. That's my stren...
I feel like this is a really sad way of admitting that you looked through your logic books and can't find any indication that Modus Ponens does what y...
Unlike you, I'm actually willling to look at sources other people provide for their arguments. You won't look at my sources, fine, let's look at yours...
Would you like to make a bet? P --> Q ¬P ===== ¬Q I want to bet that you won't find a single textbook that will affirm that this is a valid argument. ...
I don't think that is "all you can say". I don't even think that's a worthwhile thing to say. The only worthwhile thing you can post at this point is ...
You are biting off more than you can chew. The problem at hand is much simpler than proving or disproving cogito ergo sum - we can get to that later, ...
You said 'no one can dig me out of this cave'. Now, bad mixed metaphore aside -- shouldn't it be hole? -- I have many pieces of support in this thread...
You're just rephrasing the same thing you already said. We'll see the photographs from your textbooks. I have alread presented documentation from Oxfo...
unfortunately he seems not to trust anything on the internet... Which makes conversations on the internet about philosophy and truth kinda inherently ...
I think managing is a skill itself, and like any skill it benefits from practice, and not everyone is good at it. If all of that is true, it's probabl...
If we rephrase this as managers and workers, then I think it probably is closer to optimal than not having managers and workers. Division of labour is...
I await a photograph of those pages. Edit. Wondering what the odds are that the photographs of this textbook are going to be showing Modus Tollens ins...
If you've read what I said, then please reply directly to the second-to-last paragraph, where I asked questions. You said authentic interlocutors answ...
If it's basic logic, you should be able to provide me a single source that agrees with you, that denying the antecedent is not a fallacy but is a vali...
You presented this as if it's a valid form of logic P --> Q ¬P ===== ¬Q Now, I have countless sources online that call this a logical fallacy, Denying...
"I don't agree with that" means I think that factually it is incorrect. You have the answer now. Are you ready to look at your argument and see why de...
Hell, I don't even want him to admit that. I just want him to not be a hypocrite. He's come in here and told me I'm wrong, and given an argument why I...
I answered your question. You are being too cowardly to look at my argument. You want to present arguments and have other people take them seriously, ...
Okay, so authentic interlocutors answer questions. I will meet you in the middle, and answer your question, and if you then don't engage with my argum...
