:ok: In "This sentence is false", whether "is false" or "is true" referred to the subject of the sentence "The sentence" or the whole sentence "This s...
I cannot imagine anyone relating the idea of space with the word or concept "beyond". It is just an idiom of the linguistic expression which we use ha...
Not making sense at all. "It is unlikely that" sounds you are lacking confidence on what you are saying, or just being evasive. "It is impossible that...
"It is possible that " is based on guessing, illusion, unfounded optimisms of low probability of the cases manifesting in reality. "It is impossible t...
Hmmm I see what you are saying now, but I don't agree with you. "Beyond" in the example of "It is beyond imagination" has nothing to do with the conce...
What time is it? can be true or false depending on what was the criteria of the truth. If the criteria of truth was whether someone asked the question...
Every truth or falsity must be derived from some facts in the world or the known axioms which are self evidently true. The paradox starts with the obs...
"This sentence is false." If it is false, then it is true. If it is true, then it is false. The If parts need reference (under what ground it is false...
But people use the expression all the time in daily ordinary communications. Why reject? It wasn't "Did you lie?" we were talking about. It was "You l...
From your post, it appears that you might not be a native speaker of English language actually. When you said "It is beyond me", it sounds like "It is...
For an agnostic atheist materialist monist, having all the sounds like one's claim that she is a vegetarian, but loves eating beef, pork, chicken, lam...
It means the OP is under some sort of suppositional or imaginary scenario rather than based on the fact. When you say "It is possible that", it must h...
Removing the brain from the body would make them both die immediately. Medically, scientifically and realistically it is unimaginable. Brain can only ...
I see. So the OP is not the actual case. You have been talking the whole lot under a simulation/hallucination/dream/illusion. Got you. Ok, please carr...
Ok fair enough. Two questions. 1. I was not asking you to test the simulation/hallucination/dream/illusion hypothesis. But I was asking you to provide...
For you to have been experiencing a simulation, hallucination, dream or illusion, you still need the physical body. No one can have all those experien...
I am not sure if you are allowed to modify the given example sentence under the process of breakdown. If it is allowed, then virtually all questions c...
Your statement here sounds nonsense. Some questions can be for true or false. For example, "You lied, didn't you?" This means you lied, and it is true...
Your keep parroting "You missed the point." in most messages you write wouldn't help you on understanding. "Beyond" can mean other things too dependin...
As I said before, will say again. The whole confusion with the paradox and undefinability have been originated from the single narrow perspective seei...
Really? In which book or article did he do that? I have his Mathematical Logic, Method of Logic, Elementary Logic and The Significance of New Logic, t...
I think Quine did understand what bachelor meant. But his point was that a word can mean different things, the meanings of words can change through ti...
Quine was not a stupid. He was very academic and famous. He wrote many Logic and Philosophy books. I have some Quine books. Bachelors can mean differe...
Yeah, it is better I am not clumped with Banno in a thread. From his comment, it is obvious Banno seems to be still in huff or under some sort of psyc...
It can be implemented in C or Java in modified form with abstraction and generalisation. It cannot be implemented because you are seeing it in the pro...
But your example "cows don't eat house bricks" is neither a fact nor common sense. It is just an irrelevant daft statement, which is based on senseles...
You are misunderstanding concepts as if they are some separate entity from language. Concepts, words, ideas and notions are part of language. Their me...
I got this book as well. It just arrived. It seems Prolog is a great logic program language which is built on FOL and HOL. An ideal PL for AI applicat...
You know the cows eat house bricks is false from common sense. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_sense You don't need to generalise it to find out ...
It sounds a weak argument for your point. Some surly confused guy calling an honest man dishonest doesn't make the honest man dishonest. Likewise some...
It is ungrammatical but also incomplete. If it is incomplete, then listener will add their inference into the sentence trying to make a meaning out of...
Of course it does, but nothing more than it is a triangle with the standard definition. But if you say, something like "I think therefore I triangle",...
Your points seem to be confined in the domain of analytic truth only. In a domain where all in the domain is defined as truth regardless of the real w...
Again the point was the atomic concepts don't tell you much just by themselves apart from being objects of conjectures, confusion, intuition or poetry...
You are not reading what comes after, :) Analytic truth is a definition fallacy. It is defined as, 1. It is true, even if it is false. 2. Therefore to...
Analytic truth can be wrong, if it is wrongly defined, expressed or applied to an incorrect model of the actual world, which is always possible from t...
Analytic truth can be wrong, when it contradicts the reality. The reality has potential possibility to be otherwise from status quo at any moment of t...
What does a brick mean on its own lying on the ground apart from being a brick? Nothing. Many bricks must be piled with the cement mix into a shape to...
But Hamlet doesn't exist. Hence "Exist" on its own, is vague and obscure. It is said to indicate things that doesn't exist as if it exists. When a cla...
It is the most famous and quoted phrase in English language. What would be your valid analysis of "To be or not to be"? Why is it ungrammatical? What ...
