    You are wasting your time acting as a crank and looking for support
    from other cranks.


    I have boiled the error of the incompleteness theorem down to a
    single simple sentence. Try and find a single error of substance in
    my paper:

    https://www.researchgate.net/publication/333907915_Proof_that_Wittgenstein_is_correct_about_Godel


    Even a bot can be a mere naysayer it doesn't even take a moron.


    Your logic is incorrect because you assume your conclusion as a premise. >>>
    You use the WRONG definition of Truth, and assume that Truth can only
    be something that is proven, and then from that try to prove that
    Truth is only something that csn be proven.

    This is incorrect, and thus your whole arguement is invalid.

    For example, in mathematics, there are a number of statements that
    must either be True of False, there is no possible middle ground, but
    these statements have not been shown to be provable or disprovable.
    An example of this is the 3x+1 problem.

    Every expression of language does not count as true until after it has
    been proven. There are only two ways to determine if an analytical
    expression of language is true. It is an axiom that assigned the value
    of Boolean true. It is derived by sound deduction that is ultimately
    anchored in axioms.


    Can you PROVE that statement? or is this just a axiom you need to assume.

    Analytical expressions of language are verified to be true entirely on
    the basis of their meaning.

    By what means can any analytic expression of language be correctly known
    to be true besides semantic tautology (defined below)?

    It is either known to be true by definition:
    Dogs are defined to be animals.
    Or is is known to be true by sound deductive inference:
    (1) Dogs are defined to be animals.
    (2) Animals are defined to be living things.
    ∴ Dogs are living things.

    The proof of what I say is that no counter-example exists.

    WRONG. Formal;
    That is a stipulated definition just like a "given" in geometry.
    In these cases all disagreement is simply incorrect.

    If I say that a cat is an animal and you disagree and say that a cat
    is the windows of an office building you are simply wrong.


    Except that you can't 'stipulate' a definition for something already
    defined in the system, especially to something wrong. That violates the
    rules of Formal Logic.
    (1) That is already what analytical truth means:
    "Analytic propositions are true or not true solely by virtue of their
    meaning"
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic%E2%80%93synthetic_distinction

    (2) A stipulative definition is a type of definition in which a new or currently existing term is given a new specific meaning for the purposes
    of argument or discussion in a given context. ...
    Because of this, a stipulative definition cannot be "correct" or
    "incorrect"; it can only differ from other definitions... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stipulative_definition

    The above is the ultimate foundation of truth.

    WRONG. Formal;
    That is a stipulated definition just like a "given" in geometry.
    In these cases all disagreement is simply incorrect.

    If I say that a cat is an animal and you disagree and say that a cat
    is the windows of an office building you are simply wrong.


    Except that you can't 'stipulate' a definition for something already
    defined in the system, especially to something wrong. That violates
    the rules of Formal Logic.
    (1) That is already what analytical truth means:
    "Analytic propositions are true or not true solely by virtue of their
    meaning"
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic%E2%80%93synthetic_distinction

    Which is a definition in PHILOSOPHY, not FORMAL LOGIC.
    logic is a branch of philosophy

    then formal logic errs and diverges from truth.

    Logical entailment does not require premises to be true yet still
    requires true preserving operations to be applied on the basis of
    semantic relevance.

    Formal Logic, you don't start in a peripheral field. That is useless.


    Philosophical foundationalism is the ultimate basis and ground-of-being
    of correct reasoning and logic, thus 100% directly opposite of
    peripheral. It cannot possibly be any less peripheral.

    The reason that Gödel's 1931 Incompleteness is incorrect is that true
    and unprovable cannot possibly co-occur because analytical true always
    requires a connected set of true statements, which is its proof.

    Try and find any analytical expression of language that it known with
    100% logical certainty to be true that has no proof that it is true.

    That is like trying to find a cat that is 100% dog.

    You need to either talk in the epistemological groups to get them to
    just reject out of hand that the Formal Logic systems are valid and that
    they just need to ignore everything that comes out of it (good luck) or
    you find a group on fundamental Formal Logic and discuss your issues there.

    At the level of Computation Theory, there CAN'T be a change in definiton
    of 'Truth', except as it trickles up, as Field is based on so much that derives from more fundamental fields, which would need to work on
    changing first.

    You are basically being the guy looking under the street lamp for your
    keys, and when someone asks you where you dropped them you point to the
    other side of the lot where it is dark, but explain that you are looking
    here because there is light.

    I will warn you, that from what I am seeing, for you to go into those
    areas you will need to be prepared to fight a Battle of Wits, even
    though it seems you are unarmed.

    Except that you can't 'stipulate' a definition for something >>>>>>>>>>> already defined in the system, especially to something wrong. >>>>>>>>>>> That violates the rules of Formal Logic.

    "Analytic propositions are true or not true solely by virtue >>>>>>>>>> of their meaning"
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic%E2%80%93synthetic_distinction >>>>>>>>>>

    Which is a definition in PHILOSOPHY, not FORMAL LOGIC.
    logic is a branch of philosophy

    https://www.theedadvocate.org/need-know-education-understanding-4-main-branches-philosophy/#:~:text=The%20four%20main%20branches%20of%20philosophy%20are,epistemology%2C%20axiology%2C%20and%20logic.



    But is a different branch than your Epistemology with different
    rules. Formal Logic, which mathematics uses defines things
    differently than what you want to use.

    Yes and when formal logic diverges from applying truth preserving
    operations to premises that are known to be true (sound deductive
    inference) on the basis of the semantic relevance that is
    maintained in the syllogism:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syllogism#Basic_structure
    then formal logic errs and diverges from truth.

    Logical entailment does not require premises to be true yet still
    requires true preserving operations to be applied on the basis of
    semantic relevance.
    Which just says that YOU don't agree with what the whole world
    agrees is
    the truth.

    Find, you are on your own.


    Things an ignoramus would say:
    YOU have shown yourself to be incapable of understanding the basic
    principles of Formal Logic, and are thus unqualified to discuss it.
    When everything that you learn you learn by only rote understanding
    cannot possibly get any more shallow.

    I am discussing the philosophical underpinnings upon which correct
    reasoning is based.


    Then you are doing it at the wrong place.

    If you disagree with the fundamental logic underpinnings of all of
    Formal Logic, you don't start in a peripheral field. That is useless.


    Philosophical foundationalism is the ultimate basis and
    ground-of-being of correct reasoning and logic, thus 100% directly
    opposite of peripheral. It cannot possibly be any less peripheral.

    You don't read very well I see. I wasn't calling the logic underpinnings peripheral, I was calling Computation Theory peripheral. If you want to challenge the definition of Truth used in Formal Logic, you don't work
    in a peripheral field, which CAN'T change the definition of Truth it
    uses, because it has inhereted it from its


    (a) The halting problem proofs,
    (b) Gödel's 1931 incompleteness theorem,
    (c) The Tarski Undefinability theorem and
    (d) The liar paradox
    all suffer from the same foundational error.

    When analytical truth is understood to be connected sets of true
    statements that necessarily derive true conclusions then all four of the
    above examples lose their basis and cease to exist.

    Validity and Soundness
    A deductive argument is said to be valid if and only if it takes a form
    that makes it impossible for the premises to be true and the conclusion nevertheless to be false. https://iep.utm.edu/val-snd/

    Even the above conventional definition of valid errs.
    Here is its correction:

    A deductive argument is said to be valid if and only if it takes a form
    that makes its conclusion a necessary consequence of its premises.

    Without this correction it permits expressions of language having
    nothing to do with each other to specify logical entailment.

    Which is a definition in PHILOSOPHY, not FORMAL LOGIC.
    logic is a branch of philosophy

    https://www.theedadvocate.org/need-know-education-understanding-4-main-branches-philosophy/#:~:text=The%20four%20main%20branches%20of%20philosophy%20are,epistemology%2C%20axiology%2C%20and%20logic.



    But is a different branch than your Epistemology with different >>>>>>>>> rules. Formal Logic, which mathematics uses defines things
    differently than what you want to use.

    Yes and when formal logic diverges from applying truth
    preserving operations to premises that are known to be true
    (sound deductive inference) on the basis of the semantic
    relevance that is maintained in the syllogism:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syllogism#Basic_structure
    then formal logic errs and diverges from truth.

    Logical entailment does not require premises to be true yet
    still requires true preserving operations to be applied on the >>>>>>>> basis of semantic relevance.
    Which just says that YOU don't agree with what the whole world >>>>>>>> agrees is
    the truth.

    Find, you are on your own.


    Things an ignoramus would say:
    YOU have shown yourself to be incapable of understanding the
    basic principles of Formal Logic, and are thus unqualified to
    discuss it.
    When everything that you learn you learn by only rote
    understanding cannot possibly get any more shallow.

    I am discussing the philosophical underpinnings upon which correct >>>>>> reasoning is based.


    Then you are doing it at the wrong place.

    If you disagree with the fundamental logic underpinnings of all of
    Formal Logic, you don't start in a peripheral field. That is useless. >>>>>

    Philosophical foundationalism is the ultimate basis and
    ground-of-being of correct reasoning and logic, thus 100% directly
    opposite of peripheral. It cannot possibly be any less peripheral.

    You don't read very well I see. I wasn't calling the logic
    underpinnings peripheral, I was calling Computation Theory
    peripheral. If you want to challenge the definition of Truth used in
    Formal Logic, you don't work in a peripheral field, which CAN'T
    change the definition of Truth it uses, because it has inhereted it
    from its


    (a) The halting problem proofs,
    (b) Gödel's 1931 incompleteness theorem,
    (c) The Tarski Undefinability theorem and
    (d) The liar paradox
    all suffer from the same foundational error.

    I will point out that the liar's paradox is a completely DIFFERENT sort
    of issue,


    When analytical truth is understood to be connected sets of true
    statements that necessarily derive true conclusions then all four of
    the above examples lose their basis and cease to exist.

    Except that it doesn't. Formal Logic IS built on the concept that you
    can only prove a conclusion from True Premises.

    What is isn't built on that Truth has to be proven. Something can be
    True even if not proven, but if you can't prove it to be true, you can't
    use it for the basis of a further proof.


    Within the body of analytic knowledge an expression of language is only
    true when a connected set of true expressions prove that it is true,
    thus true and unprovable cannot possibly co-exist.

    Validity and Soundness
    A deductive argument is said to be valid if and only if it takes a
    form that makes it impossible for the premises to be true and the
    conclusion nevertheless to be false. https://iep.utm.edu/val-snd/

    Even the above conventional definition of valid errs.
    Here is its correction:

    A deductive argument is said to be valid if and only if it takes a
    form that makes its conclusion a necessary consequence of its premises.

    Without this correction it permits expressions of language having
    nothing to do with each other to specify logical entailment.

    cows are not dogs
    cows are not airplanes
    ∴ butterflies have wings


    So, are you saying that because the premises are false buttrflies DON'T
    have wings?


    The above definition of valid argument stipulates that a conclusion
    logically follows from the premises as long as the premises cannot be
    true and the conclusion false, even if the premises are totally
    unrelated to the conclusion. Symbolic logic works this same way.

    The way that correct reasoning actually works is that the conclusion
    must be derived by applying truth preserving operations to the premises,
    thus making the conclusion a necessary consequence of the premises.

    only true when a connected set of true expressions prove that it is
    true, thus true and unprovable cannot possibly co-exist.

    Then the body of analytic knowledge (or at least your interpreation of
    it) can't deal with the body of knowledge of Mathematics, (and related
    logic families) as they allow for a statement to be True without needing
    to be connected to a proof. PERIOD.
    Lets proceed from here. How do we know that a mathematical expression is
    true aside from its proof that it is true?

    You don't read very well I see. I wasn't calling the logic

    (a) The halting problem proofs,
    (b) Gödel's 1931 incompleteness theorem,
    (c) The Tarski Undefinability theorem and
    (d) The liar paradox
    all suffer from the same foundational error.

    I will point out that the liar's paradox is a completely DIFFERENT
    sort of issue,


    When analytical truth is understood to be connected sets of true
    statements that necessarily derive true conclusions then all four
    of the above examples lose their basis and cease to exist.

    Except that it doesn't. Formal Logic IS built on the concept that
    you can only prove a conclusion from True Premises.

    What is isn't built on that Truth has to be proven. Something can
    be True even if not proven, but if you can't prove it to be true,
    you can't use it for the basis of a further proof.


    Within the body of analytic knowledge an expression of language is
    only true when a connected set of true expressions prove that it is
    true, thus true and unprovable cannot possibly co-exist.

    Then the body of analytic knowledge (or at least your interpreation
    of it) can't deal with the body of knowledge of Mathematics, (and
    related logic families) as they allow for a statement to be True
    without needing to be connected to a proof. PERIOD.
    Lets proceed from here. How do we know that a mathematical expression
    is true aside from its proof that it is true?


    We don't. But we might know that it is True or False, and can bifurcate
    on that knowledge.

    Yet the Gödel sentence proposed to be true and unprovable.
    That cannot possibly be. If it is true then it is provably true
    otherwise it is untrue (not the same as false).

    expression is true aside from its proof that it is true?


    We don't. But we might know that it is True or False, and can
    bifurcate on that knowledge.

    Yet the Gödel sentence proposed to be true and unprovable.
    That cannot possibly be. If it is true then it is provably true
    otherwise it is untrue (not the same as false).


    The Godel sentence is more complicated then that. In essence the Godel sentence says the Godel sentence is can not be proven to be true
    (without directly referencing th Godel sentence).

    Either the sentence is True, then it can not be actually PROVEN true in
    the system, since the sentence states, indirectly, that it is
    unprovable. (The connection of the statement to itself is outside the
    reach of the algerbra in question).

    Thus, if it IS true, it must be unprovable.

    That is exactly the same as the liar paradox:

    This sentence is not true. (Is indeed not true).
    This sentence cannot be proven. (Is indeed unprovable).

    Gödel expressly said that the liar paradox can be used to derive his
    same result, directly quoted on page 7:

    https://www.researchgate.net/publication/333907915_Proof_that_Wittgenstein_is_correct_about_Godel

    The liar paradox and Gödel's G are simply not truth bearers in the same
    way that the sentence: "What time is it?" is not a truth bearer.
    No self-contradictory expression of language is ever a truth bearer.

    Lets proceed from here. How do we know that a mathematical
    expression is true aside from its proof that it is true?


    We don't. But we might know that it is True or False, and can
    bifurcate on that knowledge.

    Yet the Gödel sentence proposed to be true and unprovable.
    That cannot possibly be. If it is true then it is provably true
    otherwise it is untrue (not the same as false).


    The Godel sentence is more complicated then that. In essence the
    Godel sentence says the Godel sentence is can not be proven to be
    true (without directly referencing th Godel sentence).

    Either the sentence is True, then it can not be actually PROVEN
    true in the system, since the sentence states, indirectly, that it
    is unprovable. (The connection of the statement to itself is
    outside the reach of the algerbra in question).

    Thus, if it IS true, it must be unprovable.

    That is exactly the same as the liar paradox:

    No, it isn't.

    This sentence is not true. (Is indeed not true).
    This sentence cannot be proven. (Is indeed unprovable).

    The key is that the liar paradox directly refers to the sentence in
    question.

    The Godel sentence doesn't, it refers to the sentence by reference to
    properties that can't be directly mapped within the algerbra, but can
    with some meta-analysis. You don't seem to understand the difference.

    This is just like the fact that H^ does NOT have any self-reference
    in it, the machine H^ does absolutely nothing to refer to itself,
    (and thus, the algorithm in H/H^ can't base anything on there being a
    self-reference)

    THe key is that H^ can take any machines description as its input, so
    we can just happen to give it the representation of itself. This is
    also NOT a self-reference, the input doesn't somehow encode the
    statement 'look at yourself', it just happens to match the machine it
    is being given to.



    Gödel expressly said that the liar paradox can be used to derive his
    same result, directly quoted on page 7:

    Right, he started with the basis of the liar's paradox, but by
    changing how it refers to itself, it removes the issue. Note also,
    Not Provable is not the same as If False (except by your faulty logic).


    LP := ~True(LP)
       is isomorphic to
    G := ~Provable(G)
    Both specify an infinite a cycle that Prolog would reject.

    First, Prolog is NOT the standard to measure by.

    Second, True(x) and Provable(x) are DIFFERENT attributes.

    Third, THe Godel Sentence is NOT  ~Proveable(G), but
    G := ~Provable(x) with a logic system that connects x to G in an
    indirect way that is only detectable outside the logic system.

    That is an important point that you don't seem to understand.


    Gödel specifically said that makes no difference.
    He specifically said that the Liar Paradox derives an equivalent proof.

    https://www.researchgate.net/publication/333907915_Proof_that_Wittgenstein_is_correct_about_Godel


    The liar paradox and Gödel's G are simply not truth bearers in the
    same way that the sentence: "What time is it?" is not a truth bearer.
    No self-contradictory expression of language is ever a truth bearer.
