Matt Dilahunty On The Logical Absolutes
#24
RE: Matt Dilahunty On The Logical Absolutes
Everything is whatever it is and isn't whatever it isn't regardless of if we even exist to say "everything is whatever it is and isn't whatever it isn't". Not talking about the conceptualization of logic. It is indeed an ontological fact that a thing is a thing. You're making a use/mention error if you seriously think that a thing is not a thing unless we can conceptualize it.

Doesn't matter what definition or conceptualiation of truth we use or system of logic. It doesn't change the fact that something is what it is. We don't have any meaningful definition of truth at all without A=A. If you're equivocating with meaningless definitions, that's irrelevant. It doesn't matter how you mess about with defining things... in the normal sense of true something is what it is.

The normal definition of truth is based on the logical absolutes not the other way around.
