    Saul Kripke was by no means any sort of dumb
    https://www.impan.pl/~kz/truthseminar/Kripke_Outline.pdf

    And he isn't trying to say the Liar's Paradox is a Truth Beared.

    At a quick glance he seems to be working on logic that handles
    ill-defined statments with partial knowledge


    Of course, those are probably the works that you can sort of
    understand, since they are at your level.

    And actually, MOST people just understand that non-truth of the
    Liar's Paradox and they leave it at that.


    Tarski "proved" that truth cannot be specified and used the Liar
    Paradox as the foundation of this proof.

    Not quite.

    He Showed that if you presume a complete specification for truth
    could exist in a system, that it is neccessarily possible to prove
    that the Liar's Paradox is True.


    Maybe Tarski made that same mistake you are are making.
    If Tarski believed that he proved this sentence is true in his
    meta-theory: "This sentence is not true" then Tarski made a terrible
    mistake.

    {This sentence is not true: "This sentence is not true"} would be true. >>>> "This sentence is not true" is never true.

    My key skill from software engineering is to boil complex things
    down to their barest possible essence. Tarski already mostly did
    that for Gödel.

    Did you verify that his proof is only two pages yet?

    http://www.thatmarcusfamily.org/philosophy/Course_Websites/Readings/Tarski%20-%20The%20Concept%20of%20Truth%20in%20Formalized%20Languages.pdf


    Where in those pages do you see your summary expressed?

    Note, the construction of the Meta Theory is such that any statement
    in the Theory means exactly the same thing in the Meta Theory, so it
    isn't the meta theory having a statement referencing the statement in
    the theory, but is a proof of the actual original statement.


    This sentence is not true: "This sentence is not true"
    The outer-sentence has the same words as the inner sentence yet has a
    different semantic meaning because the inner sentence is self-
    referential and the outer sentence is not self-referential.

    And where are you getting these two sentences from?


    It is common knowledge that this is a version of the Liar Paradox:
    "This sentence is not true".

    I discovered that when the pathological self-reference(Olcott 2004) has
    been removed by applying the sentence to another instance of itself,
    then this new sentence is true.


    The proof you reference on pages 275-276 is just a simple proof that
    it is possible to construct in the Theory a statement that says, in
    effect, that statement x is not provable in the Theory if and only if
    p is True. With p being a reference to the whole sentence (Which is
    sort of Godels statement in the Meta-theory),


    LP := "this sentence is not true" // theory
    ~True(LP) // meta-theory

    Nope, you apperently don't understand the concept of a Meta Theory.


    A meta-theory merely has an additional level of indirection when
    referring to expression in the theory.

    LP := "This sentence is not true" // LP in the theory
    ~True(LP) // LP in the meta-theory

    Sentence x exists in the domain of the Theory.

    That exact same Sentence exist in the Meta-Theory, not a sentence

    Not, not at all, this is incorrect. The sentence in the meta-theory has
    exactly one level of indirect reference to the sentence in the theory.

    REFERING to the sentence in the Theory. It means the same thing, but
    with a wider context by the definition of the Meta Theory.


    This is NOT the "Liars Paradox", as the liar's paradox is about a
    statement being TRUE, not about it being PROVABLE. (and in fact, it

       Everywhere, both in the formulation of the
       theorem and in its proof, we replace the symbol 'Tr' by the
       symbol 'Pr' which denotes the class of all provable sentences
       of the theory under consideration

    *Tarski used Pr as a proxy for Tr*

    You understand that is a direct result of the Theory he referenced?

    This is no "Proxy".

    Maybe you need to study THAT Theory to understand it.

    When Tarski substitutes the symbol Tr with the symbol Pr he is saying
    that he is construing True to mean Provable.


    (3) x ∉ Pr if and only if x ∈ Tr.

    x ∉ Provable if and only if x ∈ True.
    ~Provable(x) ↔ True(x).
    x is true if and only if x is unprovable

    x is true if and only if x lacks the required semantic connection to a
    truth maker is false.

    It is the same sort of thing as saying that one can only bake an angel
    food cake when one lacks the ingredients for an angel food cake.

    Nope, You are arguing with the result of the mentioned Theory.

    Try to find the flaw in its proof.

    It is a necessary consequence of the requirements of the system that
    such a statement is allowed to be created.

    Your failure to understand it shows how LOW your IQ is.



    looks like the top of page 275 is him showing why this statement IS a
    Truth Bearer, using his words that "We can construct a sentence x of
    the science in question". I beleive you will find this is his
    terminology to describe sentneces which are what you call Truth Bearers. >>>
    Since the premise x is provable, or it is not true that x is provable
    are BY DEFINITION truth bears.


    It is not a little bear that always tells the truth, it is that the
    expression of language has a Boolean semantic value of true or false.

    Right. The statements x is Provable, x is not Provable, and x is True
    are all statements which are Truth Bearers.


    Every sentence that claims that it has zero semantic connections to a
    truth maker either has a semantic connection to a truth maker making
    it false or has no semantic connection to a truth maker making it
    untrue.

    From the previously mentiond Theory, the whole statement is a Truth
    Bearer, and that Requires that the only possible case is that x is True
    and x is not Provable.


    Already addressed above. Provable means having a finite semantic
    connection to a truth maker, thus every sentence that has zero semantic connections to a truth maker has zero finite connections to a truth
    maker. Epistemological antinomies have zero connections to any truth
    maker, thus are both untrue and unprovable.

    You can't just take a proven statement and say it can't be true because
    you don't like it or it breaks something you would like to be a rule.


    You already agreed that every expression of language that has zero
    finite or infinite connections to a truth maker is untrue.

    If you think Tarski is incorrect in making that statement, you have to
    find the error in him making it, and since it is based directly on a
    Theorem that he proved, you need to find the error in that proof, which
    it seems you haven't even read.

    Epistemological antinomies have zero connections to any truth
    maker, thus are both untrue and unprovable.

    The Tarski proof made the mistake of failing to reject an
    Epistemological antinomy as not a member of any formal system.

    When we eliminate the use of Epistemological antinomies from the Tarski
    and Gödel proofs these proofs lose their entire basis.

    But the statement isn't an Epistemolgogical antinomy, because it was
    proven to be a Truth Bearer by the Theorem.

    You just THINK is is an Epistemological antinomy because you confuse
    Provable with Truth,

    You can't just take a proven statement and say it can't be true
    because you don't like it or it breaks something you would like to be

    You already agreed that every expression of language that has zero

    No, I never agreed that an infinite set of connections makes a statment
    untrue, it make it TRUE.

    It makes it UNPROVABLE, and thus UNKNOWABLE, not UNTRUE.

    You are just showing yourself to be a LIAR or and IDIOT.


    If you think Tarski is incorrect in making that statement, you have to
    find the error in him making it, and since it is based directly on a

    Right, but the sentence in question isn't an Epistemolgical antinomy, as
    it has been proven to be a Truth Bearer, and thus can't be such a thing.


    The Tarski proof made the mistake of failing to reject an
    Epistemological antinomy as not a member of any formal system.

    No, you make the mistake of not understanding what he is saying.


    When we eliminate the use of Epistemological antinomies from the Tarski
    and Gödel proofs these proofs lose their entire basis.


    Nope.

    You are just proving you don't understand what they are actually saying
    because you over simplify their words to mean something they don't
    actually mean.

    Probably because you mind can't actually handle the actual meaning of
    the statements because your mind is so weak.

    Everywhere, both in the formulation of the
    theorem and in its proof, we replace the symbol 'Tr' by the
    symbol 'Pr' which denotes the class of all provable sentences
    of the theory under consideration

    *Tarski used Pr as a proxy for Tr*

    You understand that is a direct result of the Theory he referenced?

    This is no "Proxy".

    Maybe you need to study THAT Theory to understand it.

    When Tarski substitutes the symbol Tr with the symbol Pr he is saying
    that he is construing True to mean Provable.
    Nope. You don't understand what he is doing.

    You seem to be missing that he is using the NEGATION of the first
    sentence built according to the Theory he is referencing.


    (3) x ∉ Pr if and only if x ∈ Tr.

    x ∉ Provable if and only if x ∈ True.
    ~Provable(x) ↔ True(x).
    x is true if and only if x is unprovable

    x is true if and only if x lacks the required semantic connection to a >>> truth maker is false.

    It is the same sort of thing as saying that one can only bake an angel >>> food cake when one lacks the ingredients for an angel food cake.

    Nope, You are arguing with the result of the mentioned Theory.

    Try to find the flaw in its proof.

    It is a necessary consequence of the requirements of the system that
    such a statement is allowed to be created.

    Your failure to understand it shows how LOW your IQ is.



    looks like the top of page 275 is him showing why this statement IS >>>> a Truth Bearer, using his words that "We can construct a sentence x >>>> of the science in question". I beleive you will find this is his
    terminology to describe sentneces which are what you call Truth
    Bearers.

    Since the premise x is provable, or it is not true that x is
    provable are BY DEFINITION truth bears.


    It is not a little bear that always tells the truth, it is that the
    expression of language has a Boolean semantic value of true or false.

    Right. The statements x is Provable, x is not Provable, and x is True
    are all statements which are Truth Bearers.


    Every sentence that claims that it has zero semantic connections to a truth maker either has a semantic connection to a truth maker making
    it false or has no semantic connection to a truth maker making it
    untrue.

    But becaue of the Theorem, the statement IS a truth Bearer, so untrue is false.

    You are ignoring the Theorem he is referencing, probably because you
    don't understand it.
    From the previously mentiond Theory, the whole statement is a Truth
    Bearer, and that Requires that the only possible case is that x is
    True and x is not Provable.


    Already addressed above. Provable means having a finite semantic connection to a truth maker, thus every sentence that has zero semantic connections to a truth maker has zero finite connections to a truth
    maker. Epistemological antinomies have zero connections to any truth maker, thus are both untrue and unprovable.

    But the statement isn't an Epistemolgogical antinomy, because it was
    proven to be a Truth Bearer by the Theorem.

    You just THINK is is an Epistemological antinomy because you confuse Provable with Truth,
    You can't just take a proven statement and say it can't be true
    because you don't like it or it breaks something you would like to be
    a rule.


    You already agreed that every expression of language that has zero
    finite or infinite connections to a truth maker is untrue.
    No, I never agreed that an infinite set of connections makes a statment untrue, it make it TRUE.

    It makes it UNPROVABLE, and thus UNKNOWABLE, not UNTRUE.

    You are just showing yourself to be a LIAR or and IDIOT.

    If you think Tarski is incorrect in making that statement, you have to
    find the error in him making it, and since it is based directly on a
    Theorem that he proved, you need to find the error in that proof,
    which it seems you haven't even read.

    Epistemological antinomies have zero connections to any truth
    maker, thus are both untrue and unprovable.
    Right, but the sentence in question isn't an Epistemolgical antinomy, as
    it has been proven to be a Truth Bearer, and thus can't be such a thing.

    The Tarski proof made the mistake of failing to reject an
    Epistemological antinomy as not a member of any formal system.
    No, you make the mistake of not understanding what he is saying.

    When we eliminate the use of Epistemological antinomies from the Tarski and Gödel proofs these proofs lose their entire basis.

    Nope.

    You are just proving you don't understand what they are actually saying because you over simplify their words to mean something they don't
    actually mean.

    Probably because you mind can't actually handle the actual meaning of
    the statements because your mind is so weak.

    You know, I really like that Shakespeare play,
    "Much Ado about Nothing."

    Maybe Tarski made that same mistake you are are making.
    If Tarski believed that he proved this sentence is true in his
    meta-theory: "This sentence is not true" then Tarski made a
    terrible mistake.

    {This sentence is not true: "This sentence is not true"} would be
    true.
    "This sentence is not true" is never true.

    My key skill from software engineering is to boil complex things
    down to their barest possible essence. Tarski already mostly did
    that for Gödel.

    Did you verify that his proof is only two pages yet?

    http://www.thatmarcusfamily.org/philosophy/Course_Websites/Readings/Tarski%20-%20The%20Concept%20of%20Truth%20in%20Formalized%20Languages.pdf


    Where in those pages do you see your summary expressed?

    Note, the construction of the Meta Theory is such that any
    statement in the Theory means exactly the same thing in the Meta
    Theory, so it isn't the meta theory having a statement referencing
    the statement in the theory, but is a proof of the actual original
    statement.


    This sentence is not true: "This sentence is not true"
    The outer-sentence has the same words as the inner sentence yet has a
    different semantic meaning because the inner sentence is self-
    referential and the outer sentence is not self-referential.

    And where are you getting these two sentences from?


    It is common knowledge that this is a version of the Liar Paradox:
    "This sentence is not true".


    so, what happened to the sentences:

    This sentence is not true: "This sentence is not true"

    The RHS is the Liar Paradox. The whole sentence is one sentence
    referring to another sentence that refers to itself.

    The outer-sentence has the same words as the inner sentence yet has a
    different semantic meaning because the inner sentence is self-
    referential and the outer sentence is not self-referential.

    You seem to like editing out the parts being refered to.

    Just shows how little you understand about what is True.


    I discovered that when the pathological self-reference(Olcott 2004)
    has been removed by applying the sentence to another instance of
    itself, then this new sentence is true.


    So? Since this isn't what the Theories are doing, it doesn't matter.


    The proof you reference on pages 275-276 is just a simple proof
    that it is possible to construct in the Theory a statement that
    says, in effect, that statement x is not provable in the Theory if
    and only if p is True. With p being a reference to the whole
    sentence (Which is sort of Godels statement in the Meta-theory),


    LP := "this sentence is not true" // theory
    ~True(LP) // meta-theory

    Nope, you apperently don't understand the concept of a Meta Theory.


    A meta-theory merely has an additional level of indirection when
    referring to expression in the theory.

    Nope, says you don't understand the concept of the Meta-Theory,

    What do you think it means?


    LP := "This sentence is not true" // LP in the theory
    ~True(LP) // LP in the meta-theory

    Nope. You aren't understanding the Meta Theory. I guess you mind is just
    too week.


    Sentence x exists in the domain of the Theory.

    That exact same Sentence exist in the Meta-Theory, not a sentence

    Not, not at all, this is incorrect. The sentence in the meta-theory has
    exactly one level of indirect reference to the sentence in the theory.

    Nope, because the statement in the Theory is ALSO a statement in the Meta-Theory, because of the rules used to create the Meta-Theory.


    The sentence in the theory (even though it has the same words) is not
    the same as the sentence in the theory. The sentence in the theory
    refers to itself thus preventing it from being a truth bearer. The
    sentence in the meat-theory refers to the sentence on the theory
    otherwise it too would not be a truth bearer.

    Any sentence of the form:
    X := ~True(X) is not a truth bearer in any formal system.


    REFERING to the sentence in the Theory. It means the same thing, but
    with a wider context by the definition of the Meta Theory.


    This is NOT the "Liars Paradox", as the liar's paradox is about a
    statement being TRUE, not about it being PROVABLE. (and in fact, it

    maker, thus are both untrue and unprovable.


    But the statement isn't an Epistemolgogical antinomy, because it was
    proven to be a Truth Bearer by the Theorem.


    Epistemolgogical antinomy cannot possibly ever be true because it means
    that a semantic connection to a truth maker cannot possibly exist.
    It is the same thing as my pathological self-reference(Olcott 2004).

    You just THINK is is an Epistemological antinomy because you confuse
    Provable with Truth,

    If there is no finite or infinite connection from an expression of
    language to a truth maker then the expression is necessarily never true.

    This is what I mean by saying that True(x) ≡ Provable(x).

    Now that I have accounted for infinite proofs I say the same sort of
    thing like this: True(x) ↔ (⊨x).

    You can't just take a proven statement and say it can't be true
    because you don't like it or it breaks something you would like to be
    a rule.


    You already agreed that every expression of language that has zero
    finite or infinite connections to a truth maker is untrue.

    No, I never agreed that an infinite set of connections makes a statment untrue, it make it TRUE.

    *Please pay attention*
    *Please pay attention*
    *Please pay attention*
    *Please pay attention*

    If there are zero finite semantic connections to a truth maker
    AND
    there are zero infinite semantic connections to a truth maker
    *then this expression of language is untrue*

    Finite Truth is all about showing that a truth maker semantic
    connection exists. If exists then true else untrue.


    Where are you getting the term "Finite Truth".

    Which means you aren't talking about ANYTHING that anyone else we
    have been talking about would call "True", and thus meaningless for
    this conversation.


    The subset of expressions of language that have finite semantic
    connections to their truth maker is not an entirely different subject
    than the set of expressions of language having semantic connections
    to their truth maker.

    Limiting your definition of "True" to finite connections is the
    equivalent of limiting it to Provable, which has been shown (though
    you don't understand it) to leads either logic system that are
    constrained in what they can handle, or they become inconsistent.


    Not at all. It leads to rejecting expressions of language that have no
    possible connection to any truth maker. Prolog can already do this.

    Bo, it leads to rejecting expression of language that DO have a
    connection to a truth maker, because such a connect is infinite.


    You and I and the set of human knowledge can all see that
    epistemological antinomies have no finite or infinite semantic
    connection to any truth maker, thus are not truth bearers.

    That Gödel and Tarski included expressions of language that cannot
    possibly have a correct Boolean value in their respective formal systems
    was their key mistake invalidating both of their proofs.


    ?- LP = not(true(LP)).
    LP = not(true(LP)).

    ?- unify_with_occurs_check(LP, not(true(LP))).
    false.

    Fallacy of Proof by Example.

    Proving your Stupidity.

    Prolog correctly determines that LP is not a truth bearer because it
    correctly determines that is has no semantic connection to any truth
    maker.


    If that is the sort of logic system you want to talk about, ok, but
    make it clear, and admit you aren't talking about fields like the
    properties of the Natural Numbers.


    Any expression of formal or natural language that cannot possibly have
    any connection to a truth maker is not true. Epistemological antinomies
    cannot possibly have a semantic connection to any truth maker, thus are
    always untrue.

    So? I haven't been talking about Epistemological antinomies having a
    semantic connection to a truth maker,

    Then you have been dodging the key point because the Gödel and Tarski
    proofs require an epistemological antinomy or they fail.

    but that some actually TRUE
    statement, having an infinite set of connections to a Truth Maker,
    actually ARE TRUE by definition, but are also not provable, since a
    proof needs a FINITE connect.

    The fact you keep going to the antinomies shows you don't understand
    this basic concept, because you are just too stupid,


    Verbatim quote of Gödel anchoring his key mistake:
    14 Every epistemological antinomy can likewise be used for a similar
    undecidability proof.

    You and I and the set of human knowledge can all see that
    epistemological antinomies have no finite or infinite semantic
    connection to any truth maker, thus are not truth bearers.

    Right, but Godel's G is NOT an epistemolgical antinomy, and neither is
    the sentence Tarski uses on that page of proof.


    That Gödel and Tarski included expressions of language that cannot
    possibly have a correct Boolean value in their respective formal systems
    was their key mistake invalidating both of their proofs.

    Nope, you just don't understand the sentences they give.

    The fact that you can't even give a proper summary of Godel's G is very telling.

    LP = not(true(LP)).

    ?- unify_with_occurs_check(LP, not(true(LP))).
    false.

    Fallacy of Proof by Example.

    Proving your Stupidity.

    Prolog correctly determines that LP is not a truth bearer because it correctly determines that is has no semantic connection to any truth
    maker.

    The fact that Prolog can identify that one sentence is not a Truth
    Bearer does not establish that Prolog is a complete logic system that
    can handle the stuff you claim.

    The fact you make the claim just proves you are incompetent to handle logic.



    If that is the sort of logic system you want to talk about, ok, but
    make it clear, and admit you aren't talking about fields like the
    properties of the Natural Numbers.


    Any expression of formal or natural language that cannot possibly have
    any connection to a truth maker is not true. Epistemological antinomies
    cannot possibly have a semantic connection to any truth maker, thus are
    always untrue.

    So? I haven't been talking about Epistemological antinomies having a
    semantic connection to a truth maker,

    Then you have been dodging the key point because the Gödel and Tarski
    proofs require an epistemological antinomy or they fail.

    Nope. You just don't seem to understand what an epistemological antinomy actually is, or what the sentences that they use are.

    G is NOT an epistemological antinomy, but a question about the existence
    of a number define to have a specific property defined by a primitive
    recursive relationship. Since Primative Recursive Relationships are
    Computable, the existance or lack thereof of a number that meets that relationship IS a Truth Bearer.




    but that some actually TRUE statement, having an infinite set of
    connections to a Truth Maker, actually ARE TRUE by definition, but are
    also not provable, since a proof needs a FINITE connect.

    The fact you keep going to the antinomies shows you don't understand
    this basic concept, because you are just too stupid,


    Verbatim quote of Gödel anchoring his key mistake:
      14 Every epistemological antinomy can likewise be used for a similar
         undecidability proof.


    Right, His proof derives a Primative Recursive Relationship
    corresponding to the antinomy. The act of converting it in this way
    removes the antinomy, as it changes it from refering to the Truth of the statement to the Provability of the Statement.

    The Primative Recursive Relationship is not the epistemological
    Antinomy, by something based on the structure with a transform.

    As a Judge in a case I was a Juror on stated when an objection was made
    of showing a witness a transcript of thier prior statements to refresh
    there memory:

    Anything can be used to refresh the witnesses memory, and that item
    doesn't become a piece of evidence. The key is the witness must answer,
    under oath, what they actually remember, and not just say what the thing provided says the remembered at a past time.

    In the same way, a statement must be judged on what it itself actually
    says, and the source of the inspiration of the statement doesn't matter.

    The fact that statement used aspects of an epistemological antinomy to
    build itself does not make the statement itself an epistemlogical
    antinomy, that must be determined from the statement itself.

    Since you have shown you don't understand the statements involved, and
    in the case of Godel's G, you don't even have a clue as to what the
    statement actually is (only a paraphrase of part of its interpretation
    in the meta-theory) you have shown yourself not to be a reliable judge
    of the statement.

    This also seems to apply to almost anything about Logic and Truth. In
    fact, you have admitted so much as you pointed claim you are using
    different definitions of Trurh, and sometimes even provablie, so you are showing you are working outside the logic system of the proofs you are
    talking about.

    Until you show the work to build up from your new definition to the
    point of having a logic system rich enough to handle the requirements of
    these proofs, you just can't use your definitions here.

    YOU FAIL.

    First, you confuse Intelgence with Knowledge.

    Finite Truth is all about showing that a truth maker semantic
    connection exists. If exists then true else untrue.


    Where are you getting the term "Finite Truth".


    Even a guy with a top 1% IQ would be able to figure out from our
    prior
    context that I must mean expressions of language that have finite
    semantic connections to their truth maker.

    Which means you aren't talking about ANYTHING that anyone else we
    have been talking about would call "True", and thus meaningless for
    this conversation.


    The subset of expressions of language that have finite semantic
    connections to their truth maker is not an entirely different subject
    than the set of expressions of language having semantic connections
    to their truth maker.

    Limiting your definition of "True" to finite connections is the
    equivalent of limiting it to Provable, which has been shown (though
    you don't understand it) to leads either logic system that are
    constrained in what they can handle, or they become inconsistent.


    Not at all. It leads to rejecting expressions of language that have
    no possible connection to any truth maker. Prolog can already do this.

    Bo, it leads to rejecting expression of language that DO have a
    connection to a truth maker, because such a connect is infinite.

    He does it for me:
      14 Every epistemological antinomy can likewise be used for a similar
         undecidability proof.

    But that isn't a sumary of G, and the fact you think is it just prves
    your stupidity.


    To quote for some references to this:

    Gödel specifically cites Richard's paradox and the liar paradox as
    semantical analogues to his syntactical incompleteness result in the introductory section of "On Formally Undecidable Propositions in
    Principia Mathematica and Related Systems I". The liar paradox is the
    sentence "This sentence is false." An analysis of the liar sentence
    shows that it cannot be true (for then, as it asserts, it is false), nor
    can it be false (for then, it is true). A Gödel sentence G for a system
    F makes a similar assertion to the liar sentence, but with truth
    replaced by provability: G says "G is not provable in the system F." The analysis of the truth and provability of G is a formalized version of
    the analysis of the truth of the liar sentence.

    It is not possible to replace "not provable" with "false" in a Gödel
    sentence because the predicate "Q is the Gödel number of a false
    formula" cannot be represented as a formula of arithmetic. This result,
    known as Tarski's undefinability theorem, was discovered independently
    both by Gödel, when he was working on the proof of the incompleteness
    theorem, and by the theorem's namesake, Alfred Tarski.

    Thus, it may be BASED on the Liars paradox, but it isn't the Liar's Paradox.

    And a description of the actual sentence of G is:

    Thus, although the Gödel sentence refers indirectly to sentences of the
    system F, when read as an arithmetical statement the Gödel sentence
    directly refers only to natural numbers. It asserts that no natural
    number has a particular property, where that property is given by a
    primitive recursive relation (Smith 2007, p. 141). As such, the Gödel
    sentence can be written in the language of arithmetic with a simple
    syntactic form. In particular, it can be expressed as a formula in the
    language of arithmetic consisting of a number of leading universal
    quantifiers followed by a quantifier-free body (these formulas are at
    level Pi 1/0 of the arithmetical hierarchy). Via the MRDP theorem, the
    Gödel sentence can be re-written as a statement that a particular
    polynomial in many variables with integer coefficients never takes the
    value zero when integers are substituted for its variables (Franzén
    2005, p. 71).


    Thus, the ACTUAL Godel sentence is just a statement about
    Natural/Integer Numbers.

    The interpreation of it showing it is True but unprovable occurs in the Meta-Theory which provides an interpration of these numbers.

    Proving your Stupidity.

    Prolog correctly determines that LP is not a truth bearer because it

    FALSE.

    Prolog only handles a limited set of expression, and will thus reject
    anything that uses higher level or more complicated logic than what it
    can handle.

    Prolog is limited to First Order Logic, so can't handle Mathematics
    which uses Second Order Logic.

    Your attempts to fake Second order logic by expanding the universe of
    what you are dealing with fails, as it moves your Universe to an
    UNCOUNTABLE infinite set, which breaks a lot of the logic principles
    that First Order Logic is built on.

    So, your use of Prolog just shows you ignorance of the actual basics of
    the theories you are working in.


    The fact you make the claim just proves you are incompetent to handle
    logic.



    If that is the sort of logic system you want to talk about, ok,
    but make it clear, and admit you aren't talking about fields like
    the properties of the Natural Numbers.

    Then you have been dodging the key point because the Gödel and Tarski

    You keep on saying that Godel's G is an epistemological statement.

    I have explained to you what Godel's G acutally is.

    It is NOT an actual epistemological statement, and can't be, as the
    existance of a number that matches a computable property is always a
    Truth Bearer.

    Thus, you are in error, and too stupid to understand it.


    That you say that I made a mistake and do not provide any reasoning why
    you think this is a mistake only indicates that you are trying to hide
    your lack of understanding of what I said.

    That I HAVE provided reasoning, but you keep on saying I don't says you
    are too stupid to read what I have been writing.

    In fact, the fact that you keep on trying to repeat statements that I
    haven't objected to shows your lack of understanding.


    G is NOT an epistemological antinomy, but a question about the
    existence of a number define to have a specific property defined by a
    primitive recursive relationship. Since Primative Recursive
    Relationships are Computable, the existance or lack thereof of a
    number that meets that relationship IS a Truth Bearer.


      14 Every epistemological antinomy can likewise be used for a similar
         undecidability proof.

    Hence the Liar Paradox can be used as a basis and when this version is refuted the refutation applies to G.

    Nope, you don't understand what he is saying, I have explained an you
    don't get it. Obviously you are just too stupid.



    but that some actually TRUE statement, having an infinite set of
    connections to a Truth Maker, actually ARE TRUE by definition, but
    are also not provable, since a proof needs a FINITE connect.

    The fact you keep going to the antinomies shows you don't understand
    this basic concept, because you are just too stupid,


    Verbatim quote of Gödel anchoring his key mistake:

    Right, His proof derives a Primative Recursive Relationship
    corresponding to the antinomy. The act of converting it in this way
    removes the antinomy, as it changes it from refering to the Truth of
    the statement to the Provability of the Statement.

    The Primative Recursive Relationship is not the epistemological
    Antinomy, by something based on the structure with a transform.

      14 Every epistemological antinomy can likewise be used for a similar
         undecidability proof.

    Meaning that the Liar Paradox based proof is equivalent.


    Nope, you don't understand what he is saying.

    And yes, the classical Godel G is based on the simple Liar's Paradox
    antinomy, but that antinomy is TRANSFORMED to a Truth Bearer by a method
    he describes by the conversion of statements about Truth to being about
    Proof, and statements like "x is Provable" is always a Truth Bearer,
    even when self referential, (since non-truth bearing sentences are not provable) while they can become non-truth bearers when talking about
    their own truth.

    Note, the self-contradictoriness is contained only in the Meta-Theory,
    and doesn't appear at all in the Theory, so it can't influence the Truth Bearing of the statement in the Theory (and the Meta Theory is defined
    in a way that it can't change when moving to the Meta Theory)

    Your failure to understand is just proof of your stupidity and ignorance.

    Tarski "proved" that truth cannot be specified and used the

    Not quite.

    He Showed that if you presume a complete specification for truth >>>>>>>> could exist in a system, that it is neccessarily possible to

    Maybe Tarski made that same mistake you are are making.
    If Tarski believed that he proved this sentence is true in his
    meta-theory: "This sentence is not true" then Tarski made a
    terrible mistake.

    {This sentence is not true: "This sentence is not true"} would be >>>>>>> true.
    "This sentence is not true" is never true.

    http://www.thatmarcusfamily.org/philosophy/Course_Websites/Readings/Tarski%20-%20The%20Concept%20of%20Truth%20in%20Formalized%20Languages.pdf


    Where in those pages do you see your summary expressed?

    Note, the construction of the Meta Theory is such that any
    statement in the Theory means exactly the same thing in the Meta
    Theory, so it isn't the meta theory having a statement referencing >>>>>> the statement in the theory, but is a proof of the actual original >>>>>> statement.


    This sentence is not true: "This sentence is not true"
    The outer-sentence has the same words as the inner sentence yet has a >>>>> different semantic meaning because the inner sentence is self-
    referential and the outer sentence is not self-referential.

    And where are you getting these two sentences from?


    It is common knowledge that this is a version of the Liar Paradox:
    "This sentence is not true".


    so, what happened to the sentences:

    This sentence is not true: "This sentence is not true"

    The RHS is the Liar Paradox. The whole sentence is one sentence
    referring to another sentence that refers to itself.

    More lying by triming.


    The outer-sentence has the same words as the inner sentence yet has a
    different semantic meaning because the inner sentence is self-
    referential and the outer sentence is not self-referential.

    You seem to like editing out the parts being refered to.

    Just shows how little you understand about what is True.


    I discovered that when the pathological self-reference(Olcott 2004)
    has been removed by applying the sentence to another instance of
    itself, then this new sentence is true.


    So? Since this isn't what the Theories are doing, it doesn't matter.


    The proof you reference on pages 275-276 is just a simple proof
    that it is possible to construct in the Theory a statement that
    says, in effect, that statement x is not provable in the Theory if >>>>>> and only if p is True. With p being a reference to the whole
    sentence (Which is sort of Godels statement in the Meta-theory),


    LP := "this sentence is not true" // theory
    ~True(LP) // meta-theory

    Nope, you apperently don't understand the concept of a Meta Theory.


    A meta-theory merely has an additional level of indirection when
    referring to expression in the theory.

    Nope, says you don't understand the concept of the Meta-Theory,

    What do you think it means?

    For instance, for Godel, we have in the theory, we have a statement "G"
    in the theory that says that there does not exist a Natural Number with
    a spicific property specified by a specified Primative Recursive
    Relationship.

    In the Meta-Theory, the statement means the same thing, but it also has
    a semantic connection to the fact that a number that meets that
    Primitive Recursive Relationship represents a Proof of the statement "G"
    within the Theory.

    We can then in the Meta-Theory prove that no such number can exist, and
    since both Theory and Meta-Theory use the same rules for mathematics,
    that means that no such number can exist in the Theory, so "G" must be
    True in the system.

    Since no such number exist, we know from the Meta-Theory that no proof
    of G can exist in the Theory (or the number corresponding to the theory
    would exist).



    LP := "This sentence is not true" // LP in the theory
    ~True(LP) // LP in the meta-theory

    Nope. You aren't understanding the Meta Theory. I guess you mind is
    just too week.


    Sentence x exists in the domain of the Theory.

    That exact same Sentence exist in the Meta-Theory, not a sentence

    Not, not at all, this is incorrect. The sentence in the meta-theory has
    exactly one level of indirect reference to the sentence in the theory.

    Nope, because the statement in the Theory is ALSO a statement in the
    Meta-Theory, because of the rules used to create the Meta-Theory.


    The sentence in the theory (even though it has the same words) is not
    the same as the sentence in the theory. The sentence in the theory
    refers to itself thus preventing it from  being a truth bearer. The
    sentence in the meat-theory refers to the sentence on the theory
    otherwise it too would not be a truth bearer.

    Nope. The sentence in the Theory makes no refernce to itself (for Godel
    at least). Like I said, the Godel sentence is about the existance of a
    Natural Number with a specified property. It is only in the Meta-Theory
    that we can connect that property to the sentence itself


    Any sentence of the form:
    X := ~True(X) is not a truth bearer in any formal system.

    Which isn't the form of any of the sentences, which you should know if
    you read any of them.



    REFERING to the sentence in the Theory. It means the same thing, but
    with a wider context by the definition of the Meta Theory.


    This is NOT the "Liars Paradox", as the liar's paradox is about a
    statement being TRUE, not about it being PROVABLE. (and in fact, it >>>>>
       Everywhere, both in the formulation of the
       theorem and in its proof, we replace the symbol 'Tr' by the
       symbol 'Pr' which denotes the class of all provable sentences

    *Tarski used Pr as a proxy for Tr*

    You understand that is a direct result of the Theory he referenced?

    This is no "Proxy".

    Maybe you need to study THAT Theory to understand it.

    When Tarski substitutes the symbol Tr with the symbol Pr he is saying
    that he is construing True to mean Provable.

    Nope. You don't understand what he is doing.


    What do you think he means, even a bot can merely disagree.

    He is using the method of his Proof of Theorem I, and in the proof
    making a change of True for Provable.

    That yeilds (as he says) that expression.


    You seem to be missing that he is using the NEGATION of the first
    sentence built according to the Theory he is referencing.


    And he is substituting Pr for Tr.

    Right, IN THE STEPS OF THE PROOF of Theorem I, so repeat that proof
    using Pr instead of Tr.

    Find the error in that proof with that change.




    (3) x ∉ Pr if and only if x ∈ Tr.

    x ∉ Provable if and only if x ∈ True.
    ~Provable(x) ↔ True(x).
    x is true if and only if x is unprovable

    x is true if and only if x lacks the required semantic connection to a >>>>> truth maker is false.

    It is the same sort of thing as saying that one can only bake an angel >>>>> food cake when one lacks the ingredients for an angel food cake.

    Nope, You are arguing with the result of the mentioned Theory.

    Try to find the flaw in its proof.

    It is a necessary consequence of the requirements of the system that
    such a statement is allowed to be created.

    Your failure to understand it shows how LOW your IQ is.



    looks like the top of page 275 is him showing why this statement
    IS a Truth Bearer, using his words that "We can construct a
    sentence x of the science in question". I beleive you will find
    this is his terminology to describe sentneces which are what you
    call Truth Bearers.

    Since the premise x is provable, or it is not true that x is
    provable are BY DEFINITION truth bears.


    It is not a little bear that always tells the truth, it is that the
    expression of language has a Boolean semantic value of true or false. >>>>
    Right. The statements x is Provable, x is not Provable, and x is
    True are all statements which are Truth Bearers.


    Every sentence that claims that it has zero semantic connections to a
    truth maker either has a semantic connection to a truth maker making
    it false or has no semantic connection to a truth maker making it
    untrue.


    But becaue of the Theorem, the statement IS a truth Bearer, so untrue
    is false.


    X := ~True(X) is never ever a truth bearer.

    But that isn't any of the statements in question


    You are ignoring the Theorem he is referencing, probably because you
    don't understand it.

    From the previously mentiond Theory, the whole statement is a Truth
    Bearer, and that Requires that the only possible case is that x is
    True and x is not Provable.


    Already addressed above. Provable means having a finite semantic
    connection to a truth maker, thus every sentence that has zero semantic
    connections to a truth maker has zero finite connections to a truth
    maker. Epistemological antinomies have zero connections to any truth
    maker, thus are both untrue and unprovable.


    But the statement isn't an Epistemolgogical antinomy, because it was
    proven to be a Truth Bearer by the Theorem.


    Epistemolgogical antinomy cannot possibly ever be true because it means
    that a semantic connection to a truth maker cannot possibly exist.
    It is the same thing as my pathological self-reference(Olcott 2004).

    But they aren't one.


    You just THINK is is an Epistemological antinomy because you confuse
    Provable with Truth,

    If there is no finite or infinite connection from an expression of
    language to a truth maker then the expression is necessarily never true.

    This is what I mean by saying that True(x) ≡ Provable(x).

    Which is nonsense, since Provable(x) means there is a FINITE chain of connections between the statement and its truth makers while True(x)
    means there is a finite or INFINITE chain of connections between the
    statement and its truth makers.

    Thus True(x) != Provable(x) since some statements (in rich enough
    systems) have statements that have this infinite set of connections.


    Now that I have accounted for infinite proofs I say the same sort of
    thing like this: True(x) ↔ (⊨x).

    Infinte Proof do not exist in classical theory.

    If you are defining Provable to mean including Infinite proof, you can
    use NO logic about provability of statements from any of that logic.

    You are thus showing that you are just a LIAR when you use your
    terminolgy and applying any of the classical logic theory.

    You have just shown you have wasted decades of your life. You should
    have been working on the low level statements of logic with your changed definition of Provable.

    Of course, one problem you run into is that with your system, provable
    no longer means Knowable, as Knowable still requires a finite proof.


    You can't just take a proven statement and say it can't be true
    because you don't like it or it breaks something you would like to
    be a rule.


    You already agreed that every expression of language that has zero
    finite or infinite connections to a truth maker is untrue.

    No, I never agreed that an infinite set of connections makes a
    statment untrue, it make it TRUE.

    *Please pay attention*
    *Please pay attention*
    *Please pay attention*
    *Please pay attention*

    If there are zero finite semantic connections to a truth maker
    AND
    there are zero infinite semantic connections to a truth maker
    *then this expression of language is untrue*


    So, you AGREE that the presence of a single infinte sequnce of
    connections makes a statement TRUE, and also makes it UNPROVABLE and UNKNOWABLE. (per standard theory).

    If you aren't using standard theory, you can't use any of material
    derived based on the standard theory. You can't say you have refuted
    Godel or Tarski since you aren't talking about the systems that they
    were shown in.

    The subset of expressions of language that have finite semantic

    Limiting your definition of "True" to finite connections is the
    equivalent of limiting it to Provable, which has been shown
    (though you don't understand it) to leads either logic system
    that are constrained in what they can handle, or they become
    inconsistent.


    Not at all. It leads to rejecting expressions of language that
    have no possible connection to any truth maker. Prolog can already >>>>>> do this.

    Bo, it leads to rejecting expression of language that DO have a
    connection to a truth maker, because such a connect is infinite.


    You and I and the set of human knowledge can all see that
    epistemological antinomies have no finite or infinite semantic
    connection to any truth maker, thus are not truth bearers.

    Right, but Godel's G is NOT an epistemolgical antinomy, and neither
    is the sentence Tarski uses on that page of proof.


    That Gödel and Tarski included expressions of language that cannot
    possibly have a correct Boolean value in their respective formal
    systems
    was their key mistake invalidating both of their proofs.

    Nope, you just don't understand the sentences they give.

    The fact that you can't even give a proper summary of Godel's G is
    very telling.


    He does it for me:
       14 Every epistemological antinomy can likewise be used for a similar
          undecidability proof.

    But that isn't a sumary of G, and the fact you think is it just prves
    your stupidity.


    To quote for some references to this:

    Gödel specifically cites Richard's paradox and the liar paradox as semantical analogues to his syntactical incompleteness result in the introductory section of "On Formally Undecidable Propositions in
    Principia Mathematica and Related Systems I". The liar paradox is the sentence "This sentence is false." An analysis of the liar sentence
    shows that it cannot be true (for then, as it asserts, it is false), nor
    can it be false (for then, it is true). A Gödel sentence G for a system
    F makes a similar assertion to the liar sentence, but with truth
    replaced by provability: G says "G is not provable in the system F." The analysis of the truth and provability of G is a formalized version of
    the analysis of the truth of the liar sentence.

    It is not possible to replace "not provable" with "false" in a Gödel sentence because the predicate "Q is the Gödel number of a false
    formula" cannot be represented as a formula of arithmetic. This result,
    known as Tarski's undefinability theorem, was discovered independently
    both by Gödel, when he was working on the proof of the incompleteness theorem, and by the theorem's namesake, Alfred Tarski.

    Thus, it may be BASED on the Liars paradox, but it isn't the Liar's
    Paradox.

    And a description of the actual sentence of G is:

    Thus, although the Gödel sentence refers indirectly to sentences of the system F, when read as an arithmetical statement the Gödel sentence
    directly refers only to natural numbers. It asserts that no natural
    number has a particular property, where that property is given by a
    primitive recursive relation (Smith 2007, p. 141). As such, the Gödel sentence can be written in the language of arithmetic with a simple
    syntactic form. In particular, it can be expressed as a formula in the language of arithmetic consisting of a number of leading universal quantifiers followed by a quantifier-free body (these formulas are at
    level Pi 1/0 of the arithmetical hierarchy). Via the MRDP theorem, the
    Gödel sentence can be re-written as a statement that a particular
    polynomial in many variables with integer coefficients never takes the
    value zero when integers are substituted for its variables (Franzén
    2005, p. 71).


    Thus, the ACTUAL Godel sentence is just a statement about
    Natural/Integer Numbers.

    The interpreation of it showing it is True but unprovable occurs in the Meta-Theory which provides an interpration of these numbers.




    ?- LP = not(true(LP)).
    LP = not(true(LP)).

    ?- unify_with_occurs_check(LP, not(true(LP))).
    false.

    Fallacy of Proof by Example.

    Proving your Stupidity.

    Prolog correctly determines that LP is not a truth bearer because it
    correctly determines that is has no semantic connection to any truth
    maker.

    The fact that Prolog can identify that one sentence is not a Truth
    Bearer does not establish that Prolog is a complete logic system that
    can handle the stuff you claim.


    A dishonest dodge away for the point.
    The fact the Prolog knows how to reject the basis of Tarski's proof
    rejects the basis of Tarski proof. It need not reject the basis of every
    proof under the Sun, hence the dishonest dodge aspect of your reply.

    FALSE.

    Prolog only handles a limited set of expression, and will thus reject anything that uses higher level or more complicated logic than what it
    can handle.

    Prolog is limited to First Order Logic, so can't handle Mathematics
    which uses Second Order Logic.

    Your attempts to fake Second order logic by expanding the universe of
    what you are dealing with fails, as it moves your Universe to an
    UNCOUNTABLE infinite set, which breaks a lot of the logic principles
    that First Order Logic is built on.

    So, your use of Prolog just shows you ignorance of the actual basics of
    the theories you are working in.


    The fact you make the claim just proves you are incompetent to handle
    logic.



    If that is the sort of logic system you want to talk about, ok,
    but make it clear, and admit you aren't talking about fields like >>>>>>> the properties of the Natural Numbers.


    Any expression of formal or natural language that cannot possibly
    have
    any connection to a truth maker is not true. Epistemological
    antinomies
    cannot possibly have a semantic connection to any truth maker,
    thus are
    always untrue.

    So? I haven't been talking about Epistemological antinomies having
    a semantic connection to a truth maker,

    Then you have been dodging the key point because the Gödel and Tarski >>>> proofs require an epistemological antinomy or they fail.

    Nope. You just don't seem to understand what an epistemological
    antinomy actually is, or what the sentences that they use are.

    Yet again you only say what a bot could say.
    If you think that I made any mistake and you want to be honest then
    you must always explain every detail of why what I said seems to be a
    mistake.

    You keep on saying that Godel's G is an epistemological statement.

    I have explained to you what Godel's G acutally is.

    It is NOT an actual epistemological statement, and can't be, as the
    existance of a number that matches a computable property is always a
    Truth Bearer.

    Thus, you are in error, and too stupid to understand it.


    That you say that I made a mistake and do not provide any reasoning why
    you think this is a mistake only indicates that you are trying to hide
    your lack of understanding of what I said.

    That I HAVE provided reasoning, but you keep on saying I don't says you
    are too stupid to read what I have been writing.

    In fact, the fact that you keep on trying to repeat statements that I
    haven't objected to shows your lack of understanding.


    G is NOT an epistemological antinomy, but a question about the
    existence of a number define to have a specific property defined by a
    primitive recursive relationship. Since Primative Recursive
    Relationships are Computable, the existance or lack thereof of a
    number that meets that relationship IS a Truth Bearer.


       14 Every epistemological antinomy can likewise be used for a similar
          undecidability proof.

    Hence the Liar Paradox can be used as a basis and when this version is
    refuted the refutation applies to G.

    Nope, you don't understand what he is saying, I have explained an you
    don't get it. Obviously you are just too stupid.



    but that some actually TRUE statement, having an infinite set of
    connections to a Truth Maker, actually ARE TRUE by definition, but
    are also not provable, since a proof needs a FINITE connect.

    The fact you keep going to the antinomies shows you don't
    understand this basic concept, because you are just too stupid,


    Verbatim quote of Gödel anchoring his key mistake:
       14 Every epistemological antinomy can likewise be used for a similar >>>>       undecidability proof.


    Right, His proof derives a Primative Recursive Relationship
    corresponding to the antinomy. The act of converting it in this way
    removes the antinomy, as it changes it from refering to the Truth of
    the statement to the Provability of the Statement.

    The Primative Recursive Relationship is not the epistemological
    Antinomy, by something based on the structure with a transform.

       14 Every epistemological antinomy can likewise be used for a similar

    Read Godels proof!!

    I think the problem is oit is just too advanced for you, even the
    publish sketches are probably too complicated for you.

    I will try to make a simple version that maybe is simple enough for you.

    The first key point was that Godel came up with a way to encode any
    statement or proof as a number. This puts the theory into the simple
    realm of Mathematics. This encoding is only defined in the Meta-Theory

    Then he used the fact that the validity of a proof is computable given a
    finite set of fundamental axioms and logical operators, This is
    basically does checks if form a complete connection from the assumed
    basics and definitions to the final statement via a totally connected path.

    This proof check can be combined with the encoding to create a Primative Recursive Relationship, for which if a number exist that satisfy it,
    that number represents a valid proof, and if no such number exists,
    there is no proof of the statement.

    The statement to prove is built from the antinomy, but changed so that
    rather than talking about the Truth of the statement, it becomes about
    the Provability of the statement.

    Thus, the Liar's Paradox statement of "This Statement is False" becomes
    instead "This Statement is unprovable".

    (You may want to say that such a statement is not a truth bearer, but it
    is, ALL statements of provability are truth bearers, you have even
    admitted it, there is no "self reference" exception)

    By the testability of a proof, this can be converted into a Primative
    Recursive Relationship.

    The statement can then transformed into the mathematical version of the statement, which will be of the form that

    "There does not exist a number g that satisfies the primative recursive relationship" where that relationship is built from that statement.

    Since the Primative Recursive Relationship doesn't use any feature
    reserved to the Meta-Theory, but is just "ordinary" mathematics, it is
    also a valid statement in the Base Theory.

    There are a number of different ways to express this Relationship, but
    all of them are "just math" so the sentence of G in the Theory is a
    simple mathematical statement asking if a number g exists that meets a relationship that is computable for all Natural Numbers, and thus is a
    Truth Bearer.

    By using the Meta-Theory, it is shown that if no number that meets that requirement exists, then no proof exist, and thus in the Theory, this is established to be True via an infinite set of steps (the checking of
    each of the Natural Numbers), and by the Meta-Theory we see that if a
    proof existed in the Theory of this fact, that would show up a number
    that meet the relationship, which we assumed didn't happen.

    If a number DOES exist that meets the requirement, then the statement is
    false, but since the number exists, that says a proof that the statement
    is true exists in the Theory, so the statement must be true.

    Since the statement can't be both True and False, the second case is
    shown to be impossible, and thus we must be in the first case, that no
    number exists, and thus the statement is True in the Thery, but no proof
    of it exists in the Theory.

    Read Godels proof!!

    "This sentence is not true" cannot possibly be shown to have a semantic connection to any truth maker.

    If it is transformed into a sentence that does have a semantic
    connection to a truth maker then it is not the same sentence and the "transformation" merely replaced the original sentence with an entirely different sentence.

    For a guy with a one in 2 billion IQ you seem quite stupid.

    First, you confuse Intelgence with Knowledge.

    As I have mentioned before, this is an area that I admit I
    haven't studied in great detail (but it seems I still
    understand some of the point better than you, which shows your >>>>>>>>> lack of intelegence).

    In fact, a simple reading of the text shows that he is using >>>>>>>>> the standard Proof by Contradiction to show that IF the "Thesis >>>>>>>>> A" which resumes a definition of Truth was actually True, then >>>>>>>>> we can prove that the Liar's Paradox is True.

    Since we know the Liar's Paradox is not a Truth Bearer, and
    thus not True, the Thesis can not be true.

    IF I find the time, I might put the effort to read the papers >>>>>>>>> you have linked to and see if I can make some more detailed
    comments on them.

    My first guess is a few days effort would probably be
    sufficent, which compared to your decades, seems a reasonable >>>>>>>>> ratio considering our comparative intelegence.

    Finite Truth is all about showing that a truth maker semantic
    connection exists. If exists then true else untrue.


    Where are you getting the term "Finite Truth".


    Even a guy with a top 1% IQ would be able to figure out from our
    prior
    context that I must mean expressions of language that have finite
    semantic connections to their truth maker.

    Which means you aren't talking about ANYTHING that anyone else we
    have been talking about would call "True", and thus meaningless for
    this conversation.


    The subset of expressions of language that have finite semantic
    connections to their truth maker is not an entirely different subject
    than the set of expressions of language having semantic connections
    to their truth maker.

    Limiting your definition of "True" to finite connections is the
    equivalent of limiting it to Provable, which has been shown (though
    you don't understand it) to leads either logic system that are
    constrained in what they can handle, or they become inconsistent.


    Not at all. It leads to rejecting expressions of language that have
    no possible connection to any truth maker. Prolog can already do this.

    Bo, it leads to rejecting expression of language that DO have a
    connection to a truth maker, because such a connect is infinite.


    You and I and the set of human knowledge can all see that
    epistemological antinomies have no finite or infinite semantic
    connection to any truth maker, thus are not truth bearers.

    Right, but Godel's G is NOT an epistemolgical antinomy, and neither is
    the sentence Tarski uses on that page of proof.


    That Gödel and Tarski included expressions of language that cannot
    possibly have a correct Boolean value in their respective formal systems
    was their key mistake invalidating both of their proofs.

    Nope, you just don't understand the sentences they give.

    The fact that you can't even give a proper summary of Godel's G is very telling.



    ?- LP = not(true(LP)).
    LP = not(true(LP)).

    ?- unify_with_occurs_check(LP, not(true(LP))).
    false.

    Fallacy of Proof by Example.

    Proving your Stupidity.

    Prolog correctly determines that LP is not a truth bearer because it
    correctly determines that is has no semantic connection to any truth
    maker.

    The fact that Prolog can identify that one sentence is not a Truth
    Bearer does not establish that Prolog is a complete logic system that
    can handle the stuff you claim.

    The fact you make the claim just proves you are incompetent to handle
    logic.



    If that is the sort of logic system you want to talk about, ok, but
    make it clear, and admit you aren't talking about fields like the
    properties of the Natural Numbers.


    Any expression of formal or natural language that cannot possibly have >>>> any connection to a truth maker is not true. Epistemological antinomies >>>> cannot possibly have a semantic connection to any truth maker, thus are >>>> always untrue.

    So? I haven't been talking about Epistemological antinomies having a
    semantic connection to a truth maker,

    Then you have been dodging the key point because the Gödel and Tarski
    proofs require an epistemological antinomy or they fail.

    Nope. You just don't seem to understand what an epistemological antinomy actually is, or what the sentences that they use are.

    G is NOT an epistemological antinomy, but a question about the existence
    of a number define to have a specific property defined by a primitive recursive relationship.
    Since Primative Recursive Relationships are
    Computable, the existance or lack thereof of a number that meets that relationship IS a Truth Bearer.




    but that some actually TRUE statement, having an infinite set of
    connections to a Truth Maker, actually ARE TRUE by definition, but
    are also not provable, since a proof needs a FINITE connect.

    The fact you keep going to the antinomies shows you don't understand
    this basic concept, because you are just too stupid,


    Verbatim quote of Gödel anchoring his key mistake:
       14 Every epistemological antinomy can likewise be used for a similar
          undecidability proof.


    Right, His proof derives a Primative Recursive Relationship
    corresponding to the antinomy. The act of converting it in this way
    removes the antinomy,

    "This sentence is not true" asserts that it has no semantic connection
    to a truth maker.

    This sentence is not true: "This sentence in not true" has a semantic connection to a truth maker.

    "This sentence is not provable" asserts that it has no syntactic
    connection to a truth maker (and is unsatisfiable).

    This sentence is not provable: "This sentence is not provable" has a
    syntactic connection to a truth maker (and is satisfiable).

    One cannot possibly understand Gödel correctly by merely perfectly understanding his math, one must also have a very deep understanding of
    the philosophical underpinnings of the notion of truth itself.

    Every expression of language that is analytically true must have a
    semantic connection to a truth maker. This semantic connection can be
    expressed syntactically.

    Where in those pages do you see your summary expressed?

    Note, the construction of the Meta Theory is such that any
    statement in the Theory means exactly the same thing in the Meta >>>>>>> Theory, so it isn't the meta theory having a statement
    referencing the statement in the theory, but is a proof of the
    actual original statement.


    This sentence is not true: "This sentence is not true"
    The outer-sentence has the same words as the inner sentence yet has a >>>>>> different semantic meaning because the inner sentence is self-
    referential and the outer sentence is not self-referential.

    And where are you getting these two sentences from?


    It is common knowledge that this is a version of the Liar Paradox:
    "This sentence is not true".


    so, what happened to the sentences:

    This sentence is not true: "This sentence is not true"

    The RHS is the Liar Paradox. The whole sentence is one sentence
    referring to another sentence that refers to itself.

    More lying by triming.


    The outer-sentence has the same words as the inner sentence yet has a
    different semantic meaning because the inner sentence is self-
    referential and the outer sentence is not self-referential.

    You seem to like editing out the parts being refered to.

    Just shows how little you understand about what is True.


    I discovered that when the pathological self-reference(Olcott 2004)
    has been removed by applying the sentence to another instance of
    itself, then this new sentence is true.


    So? Since this isn't what the Theories are doing, it doesn't matter.


    The proof you reference on pages 275-276 is just a simple proof
    that it is possible to construct in the Theory a statement that
    says, in effect, that statement x is not provable in the Theory
    if and only if p is True. With p being a reference to the whole
    sentence (Which is sort of Godels statement in the Meta-theory), >>>>>>>

    LP := "this sentence is not true" // theory
    ~True(LP) // meta-theory

    Nope, you apperently don't understand the concept of a Meta Theory.


    A meta-theory merely has an additional level of indirection when
    referring to expression in the theory.

    Nope, says you don't understand the concept of the Meta-Theory,

    What do you think it means?

    For instance, for Godel, we have in the theory, we have a statement "G"
    in the theory that says that there does not exist a Natural Number with
    a spicific property specified by a specified Primative Recursive Relationship.

    In the Meta-Theory, the statement means the same thing, but it also has
    a semantic connection to the fact that a number that meets that
    Primitive Recursive Relationship represents a Proof of the statement "G" within the Theory.

    We can then in the Meta-Theory prove that no such number can exist, and
    since both Theory and Meta-Theory use the same rules for mathematics,
    that means that no such number can exist in the Theory, so "G" must be
    True in the system.

    Since no such number exist, we know from the Meta-Theory that no proof
    of G can exist in the Theory (or the number corresponding to the theory
    would exist).



    LP := "This sentence is not true" // LP in the theory
    ~True(LP) // LP in the meta-theory

    Nope. You aren't understanding the Meta Theory. I guess you mind is
    just too week.


    Sentence x exists in the domain of the Theory.

    That exact same Sentence exist in the Meta-Theory, not a sentence

    Not, not at all, this is incorrect. The sentence in the meta-theory has >>>> exactly one level of indirect reference to the sentence in the theory.

    Nope, because the statement in the Theory is ALSO a statement in the
    Meta-Theory, because of the rules used to create the Meta-Theory.


    The sentence in the theory (even though it has the same words) is not
    the same as the sentence in the theory. The sentence in the theory
    refers to itself thus preventing it from  being a truth bearer. The
    sentence in the meat-theory refers to the sentence on the theory
    otherwise it too would not be a truth bearer.

    Nope. The sentence in the Theory makes no refernce to itself (for Godel
    at least). Like I said, the Godel sentence is about the existance of a Natural Number with a specified property. It is only in the Meta-Theory
    that we can connect that property to the sentence itself


    Any sentence of the form:
    X := ~True(X) is not a truth bearer in any formal system.

    Which isn't the form of any of the sentences, which you should know if
    you read any of them.



    REFERING to the sentence in the Theory. It means the same thing,
    but with a wider context by the definition of the Meta Theory.


    This is NOT the "Liars Paradox", as the liar's paradox is about a >>>>>>> statement being TRUE, not about it being PROVABLE. (and in fact, it >>>>>>
       Everywhere, both in the formulation of the
       theorem and in its proof, we replace the symbol 'Tr' by the

    *Tarski used Pr as a proxy for Tr*

    You understand that is a direct result of the Theory he referenced?

    This is no "Proxy".

    Maybe you need to study THAT Theory to understand it.

    When Tarski substitutes the symbol Tr with the symbol Pr he is
    saying that he is construing True to mean Provable.

    Nope. You don't understand what he is doing.


    What do you think he means, even a bot can merely disagree.

    He is using the method of his Proof of Theorem I, and in the proof
    making a change of True for Provable.

    That yeilds (as he says) that expression.


    You seem to be missing that he is using the NEGATION of the first
    sentence built according to the Theory he is referencing.


    And he is substituting Pr for Tr.

    Right, IN THE STEPS OF THE PROOF of Theorem I, so repeat that proof
    using Pr instead of Tr.

    Find the error in that proof with that change.




    (3) x ∉ Pr if and only if x ∈ Tr.

    x ∉ Provable if and only if x ∈ True.
    ~Provable(x) ↔ True(x).
    x is true if and only if x is unprovable

    x is true if and only if x lacks the required semantic connection
    to a
    truth maker is false.

    It is the same sort of thing as saying that one can only bake an
    angel
    food cake when one lacks the ingredients for an angel food cake.

    Nope, You are arguing with the result of the mentioned Theory.

    Try to find the flaw in its proof.

    It is a necessary consequence of the requirements of the system
    that such a statement is allowed to be created.

    Your failure to understand it shows how LOW your IQ is.



    looks like the top of page 275 is him showing why this statement >>>>>>> IS a Truth Bearer, using his words that "We can construct a
    sentence x of the science in question". I beleive you will find
    this is his terminology to describe sentneces which are what you >>>>>>> call Truth Bearers.

    Since the premise x is provable, or it is not true that x is
    provable are BY DEFINITION truth bears.


    It is not a little bear that always tells the truth, it is that the >>>>>> expression of language has a Boolean semantic value of true or false. >>>>>
    Right. The statements x is Provable, x is not Provable, and x is
    True are all statements which are Truth Bearers.


    Every sentence that claims that it has zero semantic connections to a
    truth maker either has a semantic connection to a truth maker making
    it false or has no semantic connection to a truth maker making it
    untrue.


    But becaue of the Theorem, the statement IS a truth Bearer, so untrue
    is false.


    X := ~True(X) is never ever a truth bearer.

    But that isn't any of the statements in question


    You are ignoring the Theorem he is referencing, probably because you
    don't understand it.

    From the previously mentiond Theory, the whole statement is a Truth
    Bearer, and that Requires that the only possible case is that x is
    True and x is not Provable.


    Already addressed above. Provable means having a finite semantic
    connection to a truth maker, thus every sentence that has zero semantic >>>> connections to a truth maker has zero finite connections to a truth
    maker. Epistemological antinomies have zero connections to any truth
    maker, thus are both untrue and unprovable.


    But the statement isn't an Epistemolgogical antinomy, because it was
    proven to be a Truth Bearer by the Theorem.


    Epistemolgogical antinomy cannot possibly ever be true because it means
    that a semantic connection to a truth maker cannot possibly exist.
    It is the same thing as my pathological self-reference(Olcott 2004).

    But they aren't one.


    You just THINK is is an Epistemological antinomy because you confuse
    Provable with Truth,

    If there is no finite or infinite connection from an expression of
    language to a truth maker then the expression is necessarily never true.

    This is what I mean by saying that True(x) ≡ Provable(x).

    Which is nonsense, since Provable(x) means there is a FINITE chain of connections between the statement and its truth makers while True(x)
    means there is a finite or INFINITE chain of connections between the statement and its truth makers.

    Thus True(x) != Provable(x) since some statements (in rich enough
    systems) have statements that have this infinite set of connections.


    Now that I have accounted for infinite proofs I say the same sort of
    thing like this: True(x) ↔ (⊨x).

    Infinte Proof do not exist in classical theory.

    If you are defining Provable to mean including Infinite proof, you can
    use NO logic about provability of statements from any of that logic.

    You are thus showing that you are just a LIAR when you use your
    terminolgy and applying any of the classical logic theory.

    You have just shown you have wasted decades of your life. You should
    have been working on the low level statements of logic with your changed definition of Provable.

    Of course, one problem you run into is that with your system, provable
    no longer means Knowable, as Knowable still requires a finite proof.


    You can't just take a proven statement and say it can't be true
    because you don't like it or it breaks something you would like to
    be a rule.


    You already agreed that every expression of language that has zero
    finite or infinite connections to a truth maker is untrue.

    No, I never agreed that an infinite set of connections makes a
    statment untrue, it make it TRUE.

    *Please pay attention*
    *Please pay attention*
    *Please pay attention*
    *Please pay attention*

    If there are zero finite semantic connections to a truth maker
    AND
    there are zero infinite semantic connections to a truth maker
    *then this expression of language is untrue*


    So, you AGREE that the presence of a single infinte sequnce of
    connections makes a statement TRUE, and also makes it UNPROVABLE and UNKNOWABLE. (per standard theory).


    Yes, yet when there is no finite or infinite semantic connection to a
    truth maker (as in all epistemological antinomies) such as:
    (a) This sentence is not true
    (b) This sentence is not provable
    Then the sentence must be rejected as not a member of any formal system.

    If you aren't using standard theory, you can't use any of material
    derived based on the standard theory. You can't say you have refuted
    Godel or Tarski since you aren't talking about the systems that they
    were shown in.

    No one has defined True(x) as a semantic connection to a truth maker and applied this definition to Tarski and Gödel, rejecting their
    epistemological antinomy (non-truth bearer) basis, that I am aware of.

    You can say that G is not an epistemological antinomy none-the-less
    Gödel said the proofs based on epistemological antinomies are equivalent
    thus refuted them refutes Gödel.

    understanding (or dishonesty).

    Do it or admit that you don't know how.


    And the Truth Bearer is the statement "This statement is not Provable".



    This sentence is not provable.
    It is not provable about what?

    ???? You don't understand what a statement not being provable means?

    There exists no finite set of Semantic Connections which can take you
    from your know set of Truth Makers to the Statement in the Theory.

    Note, maybe it might be more correct to say the statement is:

    "This statement is not provable in <the Theory>"


    It is not provable about being not provable.
    It is not provable about being not provable about what?
    It is not provable about being provable about being not provable.

    Not even a little brown truth bear.

    Because you are too stupid.

    Remember, this is the meaning of the statement in the Meta-Theory.

    The ACTUAL statement in the Theory, is:

    There does not exist a Natural Number g that satisfies <a specified
    Primitive Recursive Relationship>

    The exact Primitive Recursive Relationship is developed per all the
    Mathematics described in his Theory, and is likely totally over your head.

    The key point is, that being a simple statement about the existance of a
    number that satifies a computable relationship, it is provable that the statement is a Truth Bearer, as such a number either does exist or it
    doesn't, so the Law of the Excluded Middle holds for that statement.

    It turns out that for this particular relationship, no number exists
    that matches the relationship, but it is impossible to actually prove
    that except via an exhaustive search.

    This is perhaps like the Collatz conjecture, for which we haven't been
    able to find a number that breaks the pattern, but we haven't been able
    to prove that no such number exists. It is quite possible that there
    actually IS no such number and that no proof of that fact exists.

    Interesting note, it would be impossible to prove that the conjecture is unprovable, because that would be, in itself, a proof that it was true,
    as if it was false, that would just require just showing some value
    doesn't go to 1, which if the number exists would be provable.


    What did you think I meant?

    Which just means it is possible that it uses logic above what prolog can handle.


    The key detail that Gödel leaves out is that G is not provable in F
    because it forms an erroneous cyclic term that cannot be resolved in any formal system what-so-ever.

    Nope, G in F has NO "cycle" at all.

    You are just too stupid to understand that.


    Can you PROVE that the statement, the ACTUAL statement, not your
    erroneous one, has a cycle (in F)

    Remember, the ACTUAL statement of G is that:

    There does not exist a number g which satisfies <a specified Primative Recursive Relationship>

    Primative Recursive Relationships are just pure mathematical
    computations that are always finite in computation for ALL possible input.


    G is unprovable.
    Unprovable about what?
    About being unprovable.
    About being unprovable about what?
    About being unprovable about being unprovable...

    Read Godels proof!!

    You said that:
    "the simple Liar's Paradox antinomy, but that antinomy is
    TRANSFORMED to a Truth Bearer"

    Do it or admit that you don't know how.


    And the Truth Bearer is the statement "This statement is not
    Provable".



    This sentence is not provable.
    It is not provable about what?

    ???? You don't understand what a statement not being provable means?

    There exists no finite set of Semantic Connections which can take you
    from your know set of Truth Makers to the Statement in the Theory.

    Note, maybe it might be more correct to say the statement is:

    "This statement is not provable in <the Theory>"


    It is not provable about being not provable.
    It is not provable about being not provable about what?
    It is not provable about being provable about being not provable.

    Not even a little brown truth bear.

    Because you are too stupid.

    Remember, this is the meaning of the statement in the Meta-Theory.

    The ACTUAL statement in the Theory, is:

    There does not exist a Natural Number g that satisfies <a specified
    Primitive Recursive Relationship>

    The exact Primitive Recursive Relationship is developed per all the
    Mathematics described in his Theory, and is likely totally over your
    head.

    The key point is, that being a simple statement about the existance
    of a number that satifies a computable relationship, it is provable
    that the statement is a Truth Bearer, as such a number either does
    exist or it doesn't, so the Law of the Excluded Middle holds for that
    statement.

    It turns out that for this particular relationship, no number exists
    that matches the relationship, but it is impossible to actually prove
    that except via an exhaustive search.

       We are therefore confronted with a proposition which asserts its own
       unprovability. pages40/43 to 41/44

    Here is the simplest way to say that: G ↔ ¬(F ⊢ G)
    G if and only if G is unprovable in F

    Which isn't the statement of G in the Theory

    Because Gödel says:

    14 Every epistemological antinomy can likewise be used for a similar

    Right, IN THE META-THEORY, the statement G can be interpreted as a
    statement derived by TRANSFORMING any similar statement. They ALL
    become, in the theory, a statment like:

    There does not exist a number g which satisfies <a specified Primative Recursive Relationship>


    Now you are adding back in the purely extraneous complexity of
    artificially contriving a provability predicate in a language that is
    woefully insufficiently expressive for this purpose so we go back to the minimal essence of: G ↔ ¬(F ⊢ G)


    The different antinomies lead to different Primative Recursive
    Relationships, but all are truth bearers.


    This proves that the above simplified expression sufficiently captures
    the essence of his enormously more complex expression as long as it is
    an epistemological antinomy.

    Nope, because that is only it he META THEORY.

    So?

    Prolog can't prove a lot of things.

    not a truth bearer.

    reaches a truth value because the expression is not a truth bearer.

    You are too confused to understand that this is impossible, someone with
    a mere 100 IQ would understand that when a self-contradictory sentence
    is transformed so that it is no longer self-contradictory then it must
    not be the same sentence.

    Because you only have a learned-by-rote understanding of these things
    you cannot not even show what you mean on the basis of a this simple
    example. Try to show how this sentence is transformed so that it is no
    longer an epistemological antinomy: "This sentence is not true."



    Because Gödel says:

    14 Every epistemological antinomy can likewise be used for a similar
    undecidability proof. page: 40/43

    Right, IN THE META-THEORY, the statement G can be interpreted as a
    statement derived by TRANSFORMING any similar statement. They ALL
    become, in the theory, a statment like:

    There does not exist a number g which satisfies <a specified

    Now you are adding back in the purely extraneous complexity of
    artificially contriving a provability predicate in a language that is
    woefully insufficiently expressive for this purpose so we go back to the
    minimal essence of: G ↔ ¬(F ⊢ G)

    It isn't extraneous.

    When we use a language that has its own provability predicate and no
    longer must use dozens of pages of formulas to artificially contrive a provability predicate in a language that is woefully insufficiently
    expressive then all of these pages of formulas are shown to be purely extraneous complexity.


    Also, BY DEFINITION, all statement that a mearly the statement of the provability of a sentence, any sentence, are Truth Bearers, as the proof
    of that statement either exists or not.


    No your are wrong provability is one level of indirection away from satisfiability. Satisfiability requires provability yet is not identical
    to provability.

    The statement: "It is not provable that Unicorns are Carnivors", is a
    Truth Bearers.

    Never pluralized. When a sentence only refers to its own truth value
    (or provability) this makes the sentence an epistemological antinomy,
    thus self-contradictory, thus not a truth bearer. Your sentence also
    refers to unicorns.


    The different antinomies lead to different Primative Recursive
    Relationships, but all are truth bearers.


    This proves that the above simplified expression sufficiently

    Nope, You don't understand the concept of these Meta-Theory.

    They are NOT adding a level of indirection.


    In both cases the sentence in the theory is not a truth bearer and the
    sentence in the mate-theory correctly recognizes this.

    But the statement that Godel uses IS a truth bearer in the Theory, as it
    is a simple statement of Mathematics.

    So?

    Prolog can't prove a lot of things.

    None-the-less it correctly determines that the minimal essence of G is

    Nope. Just a Falacious arguement.

    false.

    Which just means it is possible that it uses logic above what prolog
    can handle.


    Not at all 2 in one billion IQ. No correct formal system in the world
    can possibly correctly evaluate any expression of language that never
    reaches a truth value because the expression is not a truth bearer.

    So, your saying in your mind a false statement can not be evaluted to determine it is false?

    proofs that are truth bearers.

    Right, but they don't exist.

    They do not currently physically exist and are currently assumed to
    never physically exist on the basis of current assumptions about the
    nature of reality. It is my current understanding that quantum computing
    may establish the theoretical limits of the speed of physical computers.
    These limits are much faster than current machines yet still finite.



    The key detail that Gödel leaves out is that G is not provable in F
    because it forms an erroneous cyclic term that cannot be resolved in
    any formal system what-so-ever.

    Nope, G in F has NO "cycle" at all.

    I already proved that the minimal essence of G has a cycle.

    But that isn't what G is in the Theory.

    That is what someone that only has a learned-by-rote understanding would
    say. Someone having a much deeper understanding would know that this is
    an epistemological antinomy and asserts its own unprovability:
    G ↔ ¬(F ⊢ G) Thus perfectly meets the spec.



    You are just too stupid to understand that.


    I am smarter about these things than you are.

    Nope, and the fact you think you are proves you are not.


    Show how this epistemological antinomy: "This sentence is not true" is transformed into a truth bearer or failing to do that implicitly
    acknowledge that you only understand these things on the basis of learned-by-rote and thus have a very shallow understanding.

    This is an epistemological antinomy and asserts its own unprovability:

    I hqva explained how it is used, and why the result that is used, is
    based on the antinomy but is no longer an antinomy.


    You are too confused to understand that this is impossible, someone with
    a mere 100 IQ would understand that when a self-contradictory sentence
    is transformed so that it is no longer self-contradictory then it must
    not be the same sentence.


    I never said it was the same sentence, and neither did Godel.

    Your confusion on this shows that you are the Stupdi one.


    Because you only have a learned-by-rote understanding of these things
    you cannot not even show what you mean on the basis of a this simple
    example. Try to show how this sentence is transformed so that it is no
    longer an epistemological antinomy: "This sentence is not true."


    I did, but you don't seem to understand the words.

    Remember normally transformation change the thing they are transforming,
    that is the meaning of the word.

    The transformation is converting the talking of "Truth" to the talking
    about "Provable in <Theory>

    Applying that transformation to the sentence "This sentence is not true"
    it becomes (when transformed) to "This sentence is not provable in <Theory>"




    Because Gödel says:

    14 Every epistemological antinomy can likewise be used for a
    similar undecidability proof. page: 40/43

    Right, IN THE META-THEORY, the statement G can be interpreted as a
    statement derived by TRANSFORMING any similar statement. They ALL
    become, in the theory, a statment like:

    There does not exist a number g which satisfies <a specified
    Primative Recursive Relationship>


    Now you are adding back in the purely extraneous complexity of
    artificially contriving a provability predicate in a language that is
    woefully insufficiently expressive for this purpose so we go back to the >>> minimal essence of: G ↔ ¬(F ⊢ G)

    It isn't extraneous.

    When we use a language that has its own provability predicate and no
    longer must use dozens of pages of formulas to artificially contrive a provability predicate in a language that is woefully insufficiently expressive then all of these pages of formulas are shown to be purely extraneous complexity.

    But the sentence is that the statement isn't provable in <Theory> and it
    only means this in <Meta-Theory>, so in the Meta-Theory it isn't
    actually refering to itself.



    Also, BY DEFINITION, all statement that a mearly the statement of the
    provability of a sentence, any sentence, are Truth Bearers, as the
    proof of that statement either exists or not.


    No your are wrong provability is one level of indirection away from satisfiability. Satisfiability requires provability yet is not identical
    to provability.

    No, I am not talking about Satisfiability.


    The statement: "It is not provable that Unicorns are Carnivors", is a
    Truth Bearers.

    Never pluralized. When a sentence only refers to its own truth value
    (or provability) this makes the sentence an epistemological antinomy,
    thus self-contradictory, thus not a truth bearer. Your sentence also
    refers to unicorns.

    Why not pluralized? What is wrong with using the statement "Unicors are Carnivors" to talk about provability? (Since no Unicorns are carnivors,
    you can not prove that they are).

    ALL statements, even self-referential ones, that are asserting or
    refuting the provablilty of a statement, ANY statement, are Truth
    Bearers, because either a proof exists for that statement, or it doesn't

    You seem to have a misunderstanding about provability, a sentence that
    can not be true (even if it isn't a Truth Bearer), can not be proven, so
    the assertion about it being provable is false, and the assertion that
    it isn't provable is True.



    The different antinomies lead to different Primative Recursive
    Relationships, but all are truth bearers.


    This proves that the above simplified expression sufficiently
    captures the essence of his enormously more complex expression as
    long as it is an epistemological antinomy.

    Nope, because that is only it he META THEORY.


    G ↔ ¬(F ⊢ G) // is the theory
    ⊢G // here is the meta-theory

    Nope, You don't understand what a Meta Theory is,

    The Theory is:

    There does not exist a number g that satisifies <a specific Primative
    Recursive Relationship>


    https://mavdisk.mnsu.edu/pj2943kt/Fall%202015/Promotion%20Application/Previous%20Years%20Article%2022%20Materials/godel-1931.pdf

    So?


    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_recursive_function
    Not any arbitrary relationship, the specific relationship of

    I didn't say any arbirtary relationship, I said a SPECIFIC Primative
    Recursive Relationship.


       "a proposition which asserts its own unprovability" PDF_Page(43)
       This is the simplest possible essence of that: G ↔ ¬(F ⊢ G)

    Right, IN THE META THEORY.


    The Meta-Theory is able to PROVE from that statement that this
    statement truth is exactly the same as the statement


    Show exactly how the meta-theory can prove that this statement is true:
    G ↔ ¬(F ⊢ G) or acknowledge that you only learned these things by rote and cannot correctly apply the reasoning yourself to this expression:
    G ↔ ¬(F ⊢ G) because you simply do not understand these things well enough to do that.

    Let us assume that the statement G is False, then we have the assertion
    that F ⊢ G, which means that G is thus true by necessity. Since a
    statement can not be at the same time, true and false, this assumption
    must be incorrrect, and thus G must be True.

    This is the classic proof by contradiction.



    G: In the Theory we can not prove the statement G.


    "This sentence in not true" // is the theory

    // this is the meta-theory
    This sentence in not true: "This sentence in not true"

    Nope, You don't understand the concept of these Meta-Theory.

    They are NOT adding a level of indirection.


    In both cases the sentence in the theory is not a truth bearer and the
    sentence in the mate-theory correctly recognizes this.

    But the statement that Godel uses IS a truth bearer in the Theory, as
    it is a simple statement of Mathematics.


       "a proposition which asserts its own unprovability" PDF_Page(43)

    Nope. An epistemological antinomy means two things that can not be together,

    The Truth of a Statement is NOT in contradiciton with it not being
    Provable, as has been explained.

    You are just too stupid to understand this.

    ALL statement of provability are Truth Bearers, and thus can NOT be epistemological antinomies.

    So, you agree that Oracle Machines are NOT something we could use to
    actually get Knowledge, since they don't exist.

    So, the fact that Hypothetically, if they did exist, we could deal with infinite proofs, doesn't matter.

    Because my statement is TRUE.

    Have you read and understood Godels actual proof? Including the material
    in th low page 60's, ending on 62 where he shows that his statement is undecidable in c?

    See earlier in the message (my second comment)

    You seem to have a problem remembering what you have written before.

    That is one problem with being a liar, you can forget your lies.


    This is an epistemological antinomy and asserts its own unprovability:
    G ↔ ¬(F ⊢ G)

    And what makes it an Epistemolgica Antinomy?

    Since there IS a possible case of G being True but not Provable.

    Thus, BY DEFINITION, it is not an epistemogical antinomy.

    You are just showing that you don't understand what the words you use
    actually mean.


    This is an epistemological antinomy and asserts its own untruth:
    LP ↔ ¬True(LP)

    Right, but that doesn't mean that G ↔ ¬(F ⊢ G) is too.


       14 Every epistemological antinomy can likewise be used for a similar

    Right, He is saying that using the same sort of transformation he did
    with the Liar's Paradox, convrting the epistemological antinomy of

    LP ↔ ¬True(LP)

    to the Truth Bearing statement

    G ↔ ¬(F ⊢ G)

    you could could build a similar (but likely more complicated) proof.

    G ↔ ¬(F ⊢ G)

    Nope. And your claiming it shows you don't understand what you are
    saying or what the words mean, because you are too stupid. He doesn't
    ever say that the result of his transform is also an epistemological
    antinomy.

    No, I fully understand what he is saying.

    YOU are the one having the comprehension issue.

    The fact that literally THOUSNDS (if not more) people understand what he
    is saying and understand how it works, but only YOU can't, shows who is

    G is not provable in F.
    Not provable in F about what?

    So, you don't understand what that sentence mwns?

    By your own definitions, the statement "G is not provable in F" means
    there does not exist a finite set of connections from the set of Truth
    Makers in F to the statement "G is not provable in F"

    Not provable in F about being not provable in F.

    Which isn't the question, so you fail.

    Not provable in F about being not provable in F about being not provable
    in F.

    Why do we need to "evaluate G" as a directed Graph?

    The only finite "Graph" that you have been talking about is the finite
    graph that forms a proof, and G is saying that Graph doesn't exist.


    ?- G = not(provable(F, G)). % G = ¬(F ⊢ G)

    ?- unify_with_occurs_check(G, not(provable(F, G))).

    Which just means it is above Prolog's ability.

    Can you get prolog to show that it is true that the squares of the
    length of the sides of a Right Triange is equal to the square of the
    length of the hypotenuse (without giving that as a given?)

    the Prolog formal system: (SWI-Prolog (threaded, 64 bits, version 7.6.4) because it specifies an “uninstantiated subterm of itself”

    Right, but higher order logic allows some statements to refer to itself.

    Also, the Statement of G in the Theory doesn't refer it itself.

    To be more correct, you would need to express you statment as


    G (in meta-F): F can not prove G


    This is the exact same idea as my directed graph's cycle.


    Which is false logic,

    Just says your idea of logic is too limited.

    It seems you can only think in limited 1st order logic (That which
    prolog can handle), so that shows that you can not understand even a
    moderate amount of Mathematics, which fairly rapidly exceeds that level.

    You are just proving your stupidity.

    No, YOU are confusing things.

    Isn't that standard form of the standard arguement:


    Yes in this case I temporarily conflated truth with provability.

    You are ALWAYS confusing the two.

    Note, both of the work from the established Truth Makers to the statement.

    Truth just allows an infinite connection, so some things are True but
    not provalbe.


    given statements A and B, and the relationship that A & B -> C

    We can conclude C.

    you go FROM the knowns TO the thing to be proven.


    Yes you are correct, yet unlike what modern logic says we are only
    allowed to apply truth preserving operations thus the principle of
    explosion is rejected as incorrect.

    Nope, you don't understand how it works.

    Because, given a True statement T, we can assert that for ANY statement
    that A -> T, and that is a truth perserving operation.

    It is a FACT that this is a valid arguement:

    Given: A

    therefore, by the definition of the Implication operator

    B -> A

    This follows from the definition of the Implication operator.

    If you are getting rid of that, you are going to have trouble making
    your logic system work.

    We also have that if A -> C then by definitoin A & B -> C, even if B is
    always false.




    Proof by contradiction is a bit of a special case, where you try an
    assumption, and if you can prove it leads to a contradiction you know
    the assumption was wrong.

    Note, if you make the assumption and get to your goal, you haven't

    No, your ARGUED. To be a proof you need to start from an ACTUAL Truth
    Maker, which means in this case a PROPER definition of the
    epistimological antinomy, and then with actual logical steps show that
    you get to your conclusion.

    Note, Epistimological Antinomy does NOT mean that a statement refers to itself, even in a negatory way.


    Antinomy (Greek αντι-, against, plus νομος, law) literally means the mutual incompatibility, real or apparent, of two laws. It is a term
    often used in logic and epistemology, when describing a paradox or
    unresolvable contradiction.
    https://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Antinomy

    You need to actual present an actual proof that the statement that G (in
    the meta theory) says that G is not provable in the Theory F can not be resolved, not just "claim " it.


    You rejected Prolog's correct rejection because you really don't
    understand these things at all. For you it is all learned-by-rote.

    You just don't understand what a proof is.

    If G does not have pathological self-reference that forces it to never
    be resolved to a truth value then it fails to meet Gödel's requirement
    that it be an epistemological antinomy.


    But saying to doesn't have a proof DOESN'T force it to never be resolved.


    The meaning of the word Epistimological Antinomy says this.


    An epistemological antinomy is a self-contradictory expression that
    cannot possibly be resolved to a truth value.


    Right, and the statement "This statement does not have a proof" does
    have a valid truth value, it can be True.


    Not within the same sentence.
    If "This sentence cannot be proven" was false then that means it can be
    proven, which contradicts its claim that is cannot be proven.

    If "This sentence cannot be proven" was true then that means it cannot
    be proven, which contradicts its claim that is true.



    If it is True, it means that it is connected to the Truth Makers by
    either a finite or infinite set of connections. If it is True, then it
    is unprovable, so it does not have a finte set of connections, but still
    can have an infinite set of connections.

    What it can not be is false, as if it is false, the that says that it
    has NO set of connections, but that also means it is provable, which
    means it has a finte set of connections.

    A set of connections can not at the same time not exist and exist as a
    finite set.

    Only if you add the ERRONEOUS assumption that all truth only have a
    finite set of connections do you get a contradiction, but that can only
    be an actual requirement if you can't ever have a statement that only
    has an infinite set of connections, and the only really way to do that
    is allow only a finite set of possible connections to exist, which means
    your logic system is strictly limited.

    I did, but you don't seem to understand the words.

    Remember normally transformation change the thing they are
    transforming, that is the meaning of the word.

    The transformation is converting the talking of "Truth" to the
    talking about "Provable in <Theory>



    G ↔ ¬(F ⊢ G)

    G is not provable in F.
    Not provable in F about what?

    So, you don't understand what that sentence mwns?

    By your own definitions, the statement "G is not provable in F"
    means there does not exist a finite set of connections from the set
    of Truth Makers in F to the statement "G is not provable in F"


    It is never from the set of truth makers. It is always a semantic
    connection from the expression of language to its truth maker.

    No, proofs go FROM the known truths TO the statement to be proven.

    OK my mistake. I forgot that I already said that.
    (1) Expressions of language that are stipulated to have the semantic
    property of Boolean True.

    (2) True preserving operations applies to (1) and the output of (2).


    You don't seem to understand how proofs work.


    I merely momentarily forgot.

    Bad thing to forget.


    You are just digging the grave of your reputation deeper.


    I don't give a rat's ass about reputation I only care about the
    fundamental nature of truth itself.

    THen why do you LIE about it?



    That you don't bother to pay attention to crucial details like this
    seems to mean that you don't give a rat's ass for an honest dialogue.


    No, YOU are confusing things.

    Isn't that standard form of the standard arguement:


    Yes in this case I temporarily conflated truth with provability.

    You are ALWAYS confusing the two.

    Note, both of the work from the established Truth Makers to the statement.

    Truth just allows an infinite connection, so some things are True but
    not provalbe.

    In rare causes an expression of language is semantically connected to
    its truth maker in an an infinite sequence.

    Epistemological antinomies never have any finite or infinite semantic connection to a truth maker.


    given statements A and B, and the relationship that A & B -> C

    We can conclude C.

    you go FROM the knowns TO the thing to be proven.


    Yes you are correct, yet unlike what modern logic says we are only
    allowed to apply truth preserving operations thus the principle of
    explosion is rejected as incorrect.

    Nope, you don't understand how it works.

    If one starts with a false statement and applies only truth preserving operations then one only derives expressions of language that are false.


    Because, given a True statement T, we can assert that for ANY statement
    that A -> T, and that is a truth perserving operation.


    If A is stipulated and A -> T is stipulated then T is true.

    It is a FACT that this is a valid arguement:

    Given: A

    therefore, by the definition of the Implication operator

    B -> A


    That is backwards.

    A
    A -> B
    -------
    B

    This follows from the definition of the Implication operator.

    If you are getting rid of that, you are going to have trouble making
    your logic system work.


    (A & ~A) -> empty_string

    We also have that if A -> C then by definitoin A & B -> C, even if B is always false.




    Proof by contradiction is a bit of a special case, where you try an
    assumption, and if you can prove it leads to a contradiction you know
    the assumption was wrong.

    Note, if you make the assumption and get to your goal, you haven't
    proven anything, you can only DISPROVE a statement by assuming it.

    Right, we need a sequence of statements that start for known Truths
    (which include statements that a given statement is false).

    Note, the Implication is a Truth perserving operator, because given True inputs, and a True Implication, you get True Results.

    Thus

    A
    A -> B
    -------
    B

    is a valid logic sequence,

    and, it is provaable that given:

    A -> B
    ~B
    ------
    ~A

    And THAT is also a sequence of "Truth Preserving Operations", That is
    the Law of Contraposition.

    Nope, you don't understand how it works.

    If one starts with a false statement and applies only truth preserving operations then one only derives expressions of language that are false.

    Nope.

    SImplest example.

    If we know th statment "Peter is an Adult" is False, then we know from
    this, that the statement "Peter is not an Adult" is True.

    IF you logic system can't do that, then it is very weak.



    Because, given a True statement T, we can assert that for ANY
    statement that A -> T, and that is a truth perserving operation.


    If A is stipulated and A -> T is stipulated then T is true.


    No, you don't understand what I was saying,

    The given is that T is true.

    A provable fact is thus that A -> T, for ANY statement A.

    It is a FACT that this is a valid arguement:

    Given: A

    therefore, by the definition of the Implication operator

    B -> A


    That is backwards.

       A
       A -> B
      -------
         B


    Nope, you are stuck in YOUR learned a few facts by rote that you are
    trying to use to make up something.

    I will restate and not reverse the normal letters.

    B
    ______

    A -> B


    Can you point out a case where this isn't True?

    Remember, Implication is NOT "Causation" but just that the truth of the premises show the truth of the result.

    A -> B can also be thought of as a subset operator, it means the set of
    models where A is true is a subset (perhaps improper) of the set of
    models where B is true.

    It means that there is no case where we have A and not B.

    IF B is always True, i.e. True in all models, then any combination of
    models, even the empty set, is a subset of it.

    This is also why if A is a False statement, we can say A -> B is true of
    all statements B.

    or

    ~A
    -----
    A -> B

    That is a Truth preserving operation.


    This follows from the definition of the Implication operator.

    If you are getting rid of that, you are going to have trouble making
    your logic system work.


    (A & ~A) -> empty_string

    So?

    Actually the statement "A & ~A" must be a false statement or you logic
    system is inconsistent.


    We also have that if A -> C then by definitoin A & B -> C, even if B
    is always false.




    Proof by contradiction is a bit of a special case, where you try an
    assumption, and if you can prove it leads to a contradiction you
    know the assumption was wrong.

    Note, if you make the assumption and get to your goal, you haven't
