Numbers and the Bible
Here are Jimmy’s thoughts on mathematical truths: The simplest issue is that analyticity is not an absolute or flawless indicator of justification. There are equations so long they fill entire books, but these equations are just as analytically true as “2 + 2 = 4.” Simpler equations may be intuitive because of their analyticity combined with simplicity.

What is a transcendental argument(TA)? They are arguments that deal with preconditions of knowledge and I think it could be expanded to one that deals with the preconditions for ethics. These are truths that are necessary for other truths to make sense. It means that a certain belief is … Continue reading A little Presup before Dinner
