If you reject using reducio ad absurdum in the proofs, then you are restricting yourself in the cage of the truth table which is very limited to the c...
There are many possible questions emanating from the statement relating to God's power and existence, which are theological and logical paradox in nat...
When you say "he must", it implies he is under obligation or duty to do something. Being omnipotent, God is under no such limitation. "he can reincarn...
If God is also omniscient, then he would know how to be omnipotent and omnipresent as well. Hence knowledge is power. That's why we all read philosoph...
It sounds like you have never heard of "reductio ad absurdum" in Logical Proof. If John is in Paris is claimed as the axiom or fact in this proof abov...
Being omnipotent implies God could stop killing himself, or if he did kill himself, being omnipotent, he could resurrect the moment he dies, hence he ...
Isn't FREE WILL time based ? You don't have free will for the past, because you can't go back even 1 second into the past. But you have free will to c...
Truths are reflection of the world, and properties of judgement. When the world changes, truths also changes. Judgements are from the psychology, and ...
Abstract mathematical objects such as numbers, functions, operational symbols are descriptive language for the existence in the real world. They are n...
It is impossible to communicate with someone who doesn't understand the difference between the Big Bang theory, and a metaphor for accepting the theor...
Instead of trying to give out explanations or arguments, just keep saying it is stupid, is not philosophy. My point was not a comparison between the B...
Without solid explanation backed by evidence and reasoning, the BB is not much different from the creation of the world story in the Genesis of the Ol...
Problem with the Big Bang theory is, inability for explaining the perfect position, and workings of the matter, space and time in the Solar system. If...
Great post thanks!! When I say "3" out of the blue, I cannot even know what I was meaning apart from the fact that 3 is a number. One could say, well ...
I thought you wanted to stop discussing on this topic from your last post. I am surprised to see you keep replying. The point here is, that the proof ...
When something is in motion, you have the information on the motion such as direction, speed, and the mode of the motion (straight, loop), acceleratio...
If you don't understand the point from all the examples I have give out with the explanations, then I don't see any point carrying on. I shall not was...
The point here is the OP was asking about the ontological status of ideas, hence 3 was used for a sample idea to consider. At this stage we are not co...
Maybe the millionaire example was not clear. Try with these example cases. If X=0, then X+1 = 1 X = 2 Therefore X+1 = 3 The statement X=2, tells that ...
Yes, I accept the fact the universe exists, but a large part of it is unknown. From that premise, I can further infer that there are entities which so...
You seem to keep writing contradictory posts. You suggest to stop, but at the same time you insist to provide a proof. Isn't it a real waste of time? ...
I thought it was proved and explained already in the previous posts, but you seem to disagree, or haven't read it at all. That's fair enough. Maybe yo...
You are still totally dismissing the fact P was verified as ~P from a real life event. When P is ~P, then it can be inferred ~P -> ~Q proving ~Q. It i...
We are not denying the existence of the universe, but saying the end point of the universe is not known. It could be the proof or ground for the exist...
Why make it more complicated? When you can P -> Q ~P Therefore ~Q Truth table is for the classical logic, and has serious limitations. If you read som...
If something is in motion, it requires space and time. If the universe is in motion, then which space and time is it in motion? Space and time within ...
My body is real of course, but my body is not the world. Here again, you are confusing body and the world. It is not the case I am denying the world a...
There are some objects in the universe in motion, but the universe itself is not. You seem to be in confusion in telling between the objects in the un...
The religious folks say the same thing about their Gods. Instead of thinking about it, and trying to find the answer, just saying that it is a useless...
I didn't say nothing is real. You said it. Read your own post. :D I asked what do you mean by real, when you say X is real. Is all that you see real? ...
You have explained the case of truth table application very succinctly in your previous post. I understand exactly what you mean on all your points. H...
I am not so sure if the world is in motion. Because when you say something is in motion, it is moving from and towards a direction i.e. from a to b, o...
That was what I was pointing out to you. You seem to be totally relying on truth table for the value of Q. This is not a truth table case. It is a pro...
The proof is inspired by the Cauman's book "First Order Logic". MP MT and also chain-rule are all in use in the proof. ~P, ~R was from chain rule, but...
Are you not just talking from Truth table, that nothing may be concluded about the status of Q? Remember, we were to prove whether Q is true or not. P...
I know them in my thoughts, and that's how I could write about them. I knew them as non-existence ideas, but they don't prevent me from writing about ...
According to L. S. Cauman (First-order Logic: An Introduction 1998, pp.29), introducing more premises and inducing the chain-rule derivation in argume...
The fact that we are discussing something is not the evidence for existence of something. We can discuss about the unicorn or a flying pig. Does it me...
This is still not clear to me. What is R is F? Is it a misspelling? Or F for False? From the assumption R -> P, but we know ~R is true. So we introduc...
The argument was to prove Q is untrue. P -> Q was an assumption. R -> P was an assumption too. But we know that by the fact, R is not true (~R), which...
I had an idea to cut down the tree in the back garden for 10 years, but it was just an idea. The tree is still standing tall. Can ideas themselves cha...
If we know everything in the universe, then the PSR makes sense. If we can verify everything in the universe, then we know everything in the universe....
