Explain an unprovable truth
It seems universalistic to me

2019-10-28 08:41:28 UTC  

You can look up Goedel's Incompleteness Theorem, Godel sentence, Tarski's undefinability theorem, and Turing and Church's work.

2019-10-28 08:41:44 UTC  

Hmm
Thanks

2019-10-28 08:42:17 UTC  

basically you can create statements so complex they cant be proven true or false, ever

2019-10-28 08:42:41 UTC  

but they can nevertheless definitely be true or false

2019-10-28 08:42:54 UTC  

the thing is,
it is within the real of possibility that there is a creator god, who "started the machine" essentially flicked a switch and lit the big bang, let the universe unroll etc..
That still doesn't mean that the christian god is the one who did it..
Cthulhu is as probably as yahweh

2019-10-28 08:43:04 UTC  

Right

2019-10-28 08:43:28 UTC  

and if god exists and created the universe, then evolution could be his mechanism for creation

2019-10-28 08:43:34 UTC  

i dont see a necessary contradiction

2019-10-28 08:45:01 UTC  

These concepts are all closely related, Russell's set paradox, Richard's paradox, liar's paradox.

2019-10-28 08:45:27 UTC  

if you can have logical paradoxes, you can have unprovably true statements.

2019-10-28 08:45:56 UTC  

It's also mathematically equivalent to the halting problem (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halting_problem)

2019-10-28 08:46:32 UTC  

The halting problem means, if you have the code for a program, can you guarantee if it will finish in finite time or run forever

2019-10-28 08:46:52 UTC  

And Turing proved its not possible.

2019-10-28 08:47:16 UTC  

These problems are beautiful because theyre all the same problem seen a different way

2019-10-28 08:47:32 UTC  

a logical symmetry if you will

2019-10-28 08:48:22 UTC  

that programwill finish in finite time

2019-10-28 08:48:26 UTC  

with the death of the human race

The thing with arguing the existence of god is that god doesn’t physically exist on the material plane.
It’s basically trying to use empirical means to prove the ephemeral

2019-10-28 08:51:41 UTC  

right just debating gods existence is pointless

2019-10-28 08:51:41 UTC  

Or let me rephrase, he doesn’t exist in material plane, so using material means to prove god’s existence is useless

2019-10-28 08:51:46 UTC  

Right

2019-10-28 08:51:52 UTC  

It’s so 2007 lol

2019-10-28 08:52:09 UTC  

Imagine still debating atheism vs theism in 2019

2019-10-28 08:52:11 UTC  

you can debate, is there any evidence of god's actions that show we can't exclude the hypothesis of god's existence

2019-10-28 08:52:37 UTC  

JF nailed it on universality, these logic-cucks dont even understand logic

My degrees are all in Math, and i view these religious philosophers as brainlets in a place they dont belong

do you know that's one part of de-morgan's laws

2019-10-28 08:53:22 UTC  

do you know there's other formulations of logic such as three value church logic?

2019-10-28 08:53:31 UTC  

they know nothing

2019-10-28 08:53:40 UTC  

Do you think logic can be used to try to prove god’s existence?

2019-10-28 08:54:18 UTC  

pure logic by itself? no. could we use logic to evaluate evidence and reason that it's highly consistent with god's existence, absolutely.

2019-10-28 08:54:28 UTC  

Interesting
