    Koko can't handle this stuff. All he can do is go in silly little circles...

    Let him go.

    Your feeble attempt at a new page preemptive strike against me is hilarious especially considering anyone following the thread even poorly knows your hero is a 'proven' fake for the last several hundred pages running, and on more than one point.

    I have posted citations for every claim I have made your hero is racking up contradictions and spinning in circles and is not posting counter citation, only his armchair commando red herrings since he has no defense! :fart:

    So you are right, he is going around in circles demanding we accept his trash logic in place of traditional logic and I wont budge, regardless, until he posts a valid citation for the "I dont know" lunacy logic he is pedaling, since there is no citation he will ever find on this planet in support of such loonarcy. lol

    Why dont you help him and now swensson who bought his wooden nickels? Why dont you post a citation for him, that "I dont know" is a valid response for a T/F proposition?

    You will be his savior, cuz right now his theories are resting beside the titanic and its circular because no amount of his red herrings will change the facts. LOL :winner:

    Yeh, my citations versus his :fart:LOL
    I cant believe you bought the same wooden nickels.
    Double and triple teaming me doesnt work.
    If you dont want to see the thread go around in circles then help him, post a supporting citation for him, so he doesnt have to continue to dodge all my posts.

    One little citation from any academic source proving "I dont know" is a valid answer to a T/F proposition

    Do I detect the influence of Dave Mustaine in your philosophy? Are you sweating bullets?

    I don't know who he is.

    I am 71, philosophy is for the young, for the most part. Koko is stuck, and I keep suggesting we mostly leave him be...

    As someone that made the mistake of taking a number of philosophy classes in college, I have seen the real thing.

    Only if you feel its my responsibility to validate (with academic citation) professor dodges claims. How do you expect to get a passing grade if you dont pay better attention in class. Apparently you bought his contradictions and bald faced errors hook line and sinker! Kokos stuck in the 'catbird seat' with no reason to leave! lol

    I have established that there is a proposition about your psychological position, and I have shown that it is not true, and therefore must be false.
    ...if "Kokomojojo believes God exists" was true, you would know about it. That's not the case, so we can rule it out. Or do you think that it somehow might be true that you're actually a committed theist? (source)​

    Being a theist is the only way for "Kokomojojo believes God exists" to be true. Unless you are actually a theist, it must therefore be false.

    Well, you didn't provide one when you said "When you get done counting them let me know so I can answer your question" (source), so either there is one (that you seem happy to invoke), or a rule isn't needed (of course, you have yet to provide a rule saying that a rule would be needed). This seems like a Kokomojojo red herring to me.

    Well, he's just not very good at writing, to the point where it confuses himself.

    He is sniffing at a rule that is correct, the law that a proposition must in fact be true or false. However, he's decided to write it as a response to a question, even though we know that when people answer questions, it is possible for someone not to know whether a proposition is true or false.

    Of course, this can be an innocent enough mistake to make. However, when disagreement occurs, his response seems to be to just restate his position, rather than actually dive into where the disagreement lies. I can only speculate as to why.

    I don't really mind, I prefer not to second guess others' intentions. I prefer asking them to spell it out, and in Kokomojojo's case, it's fun enough to see him dig himself into new holes on occasion.

    Well, he answered
    If you're asked for how many blades of grass there are in my garden, what would your answer be, and what rules would you be invoking? (source)​
    with
    When you get done counting them let me know so I can answer your question (source)​
    And apparently, he didn't see fit to provide any "rule", even though that's the sticking point that he invokes to avoid answering of my questions.

    I would say you are not answering the question if you say you don't know. You could also give an incoherent grunt. These are responses but they are not answers to the question asked. A statement that you can't answer, or explanation why you can answer, is not itself an answer. It isn't an answer unless it answers the question.

    "I don't know" is the honest response, yes. It is not an answer, and there is nothing wrong with that. Pretending to have an answer when you don't would be dishonest.

    Nope what we have established is that our fake logic teacher and yourself are really good at making **** up proven by your failure to cite the rule that you can answer a T/F question with "I dont know" LOL

    Why dont you admit it BS?
    put some clothes on please!

    Thats the only solution when you have been busted with no 'VALID' counter response after I post citations.

    We were talking about bivalence, not T/F question methodology. You've already admitted you aren't being honest about this, so I'll keep going with that admission.

    You haven't posted a single citation that backs up your claims. Not one. Nor do you understand what "valid" means in logic, just as you didn't know basic logic inference, didn't know what bivalence means, and didn't know how propositions work.

    Everyone is still waiting for your citation that "I dont know" is a valid 3rd option response to a True/False question. Prove up your claim. This is about you proving up the nonsense you are posting.

    Everyone except you has accepted that a question can have a T/F objective answer, but that you might not know that answer. You've even admitted that.

    Everyone but you has acknowledged it. And even you have acknowledged you are wrong. So we have everyone in existence + Koko 1.0 vs Koko 2.0 and no one else. Why should we go with the latter?

    1) You've provided no citations that back up your claims.
    2) You've admitted that there are T/F questions that you don't know the answer to.
    3) You are incapable of addressing 1 or 2 with any kind of intellectual honesty.

    And, again, everyone knows that when you "respond" to someone without quoting or tagging them, that all you are doing is hiding and hoping to sneak in an dishonest jab because you know you can't defend your position.

    I read it. I've responded to it. You've failed to address the response and are yet again hiding like you were before. But it is at least funny to see you pretend to care about responses when you haven't responded to ANY of the disproofs of your claims. At all. Not even one word.

    Everyone but you knows that there are T/F questions that you don't know the answer to. You've even spent years agreeing with me about that.

    There are two options:

    1) You are willing to admit (as you have in the past) that there are T/F questions that you don't know the answer to. Every thinking being acknowledges this.

    or

    2) You claim to know the answer to every T/F question in existence.

    Which is it?

    And why do you run away and hide like this: incapable of tagging or quoting people?

    I've already proven that there are T/F questions that I don't know the answer to. I've already proven there are T/F questions that you don't know the answer to.

    Sack up. Stop hiding and sack up.
