Look, I understand that the notion of consistency is important to you. But you cant respond to an inconsistency by stating that no inconsistency can exist because inconsistency can't exist. Invoking the principle of noncontradiction in this manner is question begging -even if it's accurate.In my humble opinion this sort of conversation merits a long meditation to have an effect on any of us - if there is anything in fact to defeat. If there isn't, we surely won't have lost when we conquer.
It;s not about being right all the time ham, it's about getting it right for the right reasons.
Now, back to the self, and how dialetheism might be at play in any self referential statement -about- the self. It may be true, that no self exists. Difficult to swallow, since, presumably, it's the self answer the question "do I exist". How could the self simultaneously not exist, and ask..let alone answer...the question?
