They're different rules, and if they're different from logic- then they're illogical by definition. It's pointless to bitch and moan about that, or comment on it being "posited" - it simply is, so long as you propose it to be.(October 30, 2016 at 4:47 am)Rhythm Wrote: Who's not entertaining a different universe?

I think "class of thing" is your dumpster phrase after having realized how idiotic your non-points have been thusfar. It means nothing, just an attempt to save face. You want the hypothetial god of goblygoop to be logical(this much is painfully obvious). Trouble is, it isn't and by definition could not be.
It's goblygoopal. What's the problem? Run with it. We have proposed, for our consideration, a hypothetical.... illogical god, that does illogical things, in hypothetical..illogical alternate universes.
You have no argument. You're positing that goblygoop is illogical, and that has as much weight as insisting you want to play texas hold 'em as opposed to any other rule. That isn't going to fly. This is my hypothetical where the alternate rules of another universe are just as coherent as the logical axioms that govern this universe.
Sure, goblygoop might be coherent. Coherently illogical, which is a fun twist on the relationship between those two terms. Though I don't know why it would need to be, or how we could determine that it was....since it's not subject to rational restrictions or penetrable by rational inference.
Quote:Until you accept the hypothetical I'm afraid we can't move forward...........................I thought we'd already agreed on all of this? If things were different, they'd be different. In a hypothetical, illogical alternate universe, under the rules of goblygoop created by a hypothetical, illogical god..... 2+2=5.
What's the problem?
