Bartricks

I am so getting owned. So sorry, I misjudged you. Now tell me again how you won that chess game by whizzing on the board - I love that one, he so didn...

Oh, good point. Brilliant. I am clearly up against one of the best. Anyway, my dad is bigger than your dad.

Omg! Reason does assert things! "If a proposition is true, do not also believe it is false" - that's an assertion. It isn't true because I assert it, ...

Gibberish.

Gibberish. You think worldviews are located in space and time? So, er, they have shapes do they? Does my worldview have a shape? Is that what you thin...

It's in the OP. Look, it isn't my fault you don't actually know what an argument is. Let's go though it, shall we - baby steps. The question is "what ...

Tell. Me. How. My. View. Is. Inconsistent. With. Dialetheism. I. Think. You. Can't. Do. That.

Er, yeah - this is a philosophy thread. I made an argument. Either locate a fallacy, or dispute a premise. Now, we both know you can't do that. But ye...

So, you think that if dialetheism is true, it is inconsistent with my theory? Explain - if you can - you know, in a way that a dumbo like me can under...

Yes, because this: is true. So it is an appropriate response to almost everyone. I don't respond that way to those who actually engage with the argume...

No, there's an argument in the OP. Read it. Not my fault you don't know an argument from your elbow. You just need more edumacation, that's all. Get s...

You're out of your depth. Not my fault you can't think of anything to say. Go down the shallow end.

Argument? Oh, I forgot, you're one of those - you know, virtually everyone here - who thinks that if they say something, it is so. No need to argue. N...

Say it, don't spray it. Substantiate your claims. As for abusing language, is English your first language? Methinks not.

I do not know what you mean by LNC, or how what you're saying responds to what I have already said about this. Dialetheism is the theory that there ca...

Flagrantly question begging. Reason constitutively determines what's true - that's what my argument appeared to demonstrate. Now, if you think otherwi...

Gibberish

You're just not getting the point. The point, once more, is that we can know 'that' something is the case without having to know 'why' it is the case....

I do not know what you mean by LNC. But if - if - Reason asserts that a proposition such as "this proposition is false" is true, then dialetheism will...

Via my faculty of reason and by comparing what my faculty says to what the faculty of reason of others reports Reason as valuing. For example, I seem ...

That simply doesn't follow. I can know that Sarah values X without knowing why she values X. And I can know that Sarah values X on the basis of Sarah'...

Eh? Let's just recap - in the OP I provided an argument in support of a particular analysis of truth. An argument is an appeal to reason - what I am d...

Why are you being so obscure. The OP makes an argument - challenge that argument if you think a different theory of truth is true. You haven't yet.

You agree with gibberish? What do you agree with? The correspondence theory of truth is not a substantial theory of truth. It is true - no one dispute...

Gibberish.

No it doesn't, you're just not getting the point. I don't have to know why someone did something before I can know that they did it. That's so obvious...

No, absolutely not. If the argument of the OP goes through - and so far no one has challenged either its validity of the truth of its assumptions - th...

Because of the argument I gave in the OP. You don't have to know why the burglar burgled your home in order to be able reliably to know 'that' the bur...

What makes you think I haven't? I was careful to say that knowledge involves - involves - having a justified true belief. That's not the same as sayin...

You are still conflating my view with a quite different one. I have argued that truth is a performative of Reason. That is, when Reason asserts a prop...

I am not sure what you mean by He did ask that question, or did if the bible is accurate. And no doubt Jesus would have taken him seriously. But, as F...

Well, because some of those theories are false and some are not competitors (because they're different kinds of theory). For example, the corresponden...

If she thinks something is the case, then it is the case. On what basis does she think things? Well, I am not sure. Surely some thoughts are just basi...

I mean taking it as a sincere question. Doubt it, as he didn't stay to hear the answer. But anyway, I am asking the question sincerely and I am offeri...

Yes, that sounds correct to me. If mother nature had so arranged things that men's penises would get an inch shorter after every successful impregnati...

Jolly good. It was hurtfully accurate wasn't it?

An example of your reasoning: Bartricks: Truth is a performative of Reason Creativesoul: Sparrows depend on worms, therefore truth depends on worms Ba...

Well, bullshit isn't a performative of creativesoul. It isn't bullshit, it is an analysis of truth that you simply do not understand. Not my fault. I ...

I am taking the question at face value. It really doesn't matter why Pontius Pilate asked it, or whether he was sincere in asking it.

Yes, clearly. I am being sincere.

Yes, if those dubious theses are true, then truth could not exist independently of a language. So? How does that contradict my analysis of truth? Agai...

This is getting painful. Truth is a property of propositions. That is not an analysis of truth. Nor is it an analysis of propositions. For an analogy,...

Propositions. But what I am interested in - what we are being asked when we are asked "what is truth?' is not what a proposition is, but what this pro...

I haven't defined truth, rather I've provided an analysis of it. That is, I am trying to understand what truth is, in and of itself. Literally, what i...

I am not sure what you're talking about - this thread is about truth and I have offered an argument in support of a distinctive analysis. But you're t...

I still do not follow or see on what basis you are rejecting my analysis. I have argued for the truth of a view that seems quite different to yours, a...

I do not yet see how inspecting it more closely throws any doubt on it. If truth is a performative of Reason, as I have argued, then it is easy to ans...

Not sure I understand the question. My analysis of truth, if correct, permits there to be no true propositions, for it is possible for Reason not to a...

But first you're talking about when someone believes a proposition is true, rather than about what the property of truth itself consists of. Second, t...

Why would that be helpful? If my view about truth is true - that is, if truth is constituted by Reason's asssertions - then Reason must be a person, f...
