Will it blend?

@cda6590 Well, I have the book "Godel, Escher, Bach" sitting on my shelve, but it's still in my reading queue. I haven't gotten to it yet. I would like to know more about how mathematics is not complete.
-
@TheLogicJunkie Look into Godel's incompleteness theorem. Logical systems such as propositional and predicate logic are still "complete." But mathematics is not.
-
@cda6590 Why? Because of recursion? Circular logic isn't logic? I would expand the definition of logic, then.
Also, if logic were completely invalid, this communication of ours would not be happening, as all computer circuitry is built by means of digital logic schemes.
-
To some extent I admire it, but I do not admire much of its nihilism and mandate for inaction and acceptance.
-
@McTheaven Reducing mathematics to logic will forever be impossible because of Godel.
-
I got formal logic in my transition to advanced mathematics class.

This is off topic but, what do you think about 'Enlightenment' (Eastern Religion)
Thumbs down for approving all your comments.
