I Can Out Logic You

Written by Katie Kish in Fun, Mmmath

Apparently, based on this (sort of) clever weave of semantics “The logical conclusion of atheism is that it’s illogical.” … If you abuse logic enough you can twist pretty much anything into a “truth” statement. You could very well, in mathematical and formal logic, make a statement claiming blue is red and still have it manage to actually equate to be “true”… that is if you do enough twisty bullshit in the middle.

Reading that post even someone how has never taken a logic course can see the problems, there are assumptions, jumps and irrational conclusions (mostly due to the fact that he had a predetermined statement in mind). It the atheist’s turn to play! yay!:

1. An extensional analytic sentence is one that, through substitution of synonyms for synonyms, results in a narrowly logical truth, e.g., a truth in “standard” propositional logic.

2. The sentence-scheme “c causes e” analytically entails (but is not synonymous with) “c and e exist; e’s existence stands to c in the relation of being the result of c’s existence, such that this relation is not that of e being narrowly, logically necessitated by c.” The reason there is no synonymy is that there are other features of the causal relation, features not mentioned in the entailed sentence.

3. The sentence-schema “x is omnipotent” analytically implies “for any possible existent y, necessarily, if x wills that y exist, y exists.”

4. The relation expressed by “x wills that y exist and y exists as a consequence of this willing” is a species of the relation expressed by “x causes y to exist.”

5. If God exists, God is omnipotent and the cause of the universe that exists.

6. If the universe is willed to exist by God and the universe does not exist, then it is the case that [by (3), (4) and (5)]

  • (a) God wills the universe to exist and the universe exists and
  • (b) God wills the universe to exist and the universe does not exist.

7. The proposition expressed by the sentence, “God wills the universe to exist and the universe exists, and God wills the universe to exist and the universe does not exist,” is a negation of a theorem of standard propositional logic, namely, that it is not the case that both p and not-p.

8. Therefore, God narrowly logically necessitates whatever possibility he causes to exist.

9. Therefore, it is not the case that the universe is caused to exist by God [from (2)].

10. Therefore, God does not exist [from (5) and (9)].

Dear loyal readers, forgive Katie for mentioning “2 Hot Girls in the Shower.” (They’re not that hot btw, plus, no boobage is visible). She is still sick with flu-like symptoms and clearly her usual discerning sense of taste is not all there. If Katie were not sick, I’m sure she would suggest you go watch the Midwest Teen Sex Show. First off, as the name suggests the show is about sex, but it’s not porn. It’s educational! (Well, actually, some uptight scumf*cks might consider it to be porn, but these people are crazies). The Midwest Teen Sex Show, is made somewhere in the mid-west of the good ol’ US of A and it’s sex ed that is fun. And funny. And informative! If only sex ed were taught in school the way they did it on the Midwest Teen Sex Show…I’d actually remember something from those classes. All the sex ed I did learn was either from the awesome Loveline radio show, surfing the internet, or *gasp* my parents. My parents were smart, they gave me good books on sex. The first one I got and arguably the best would have to be the Where did I come from? book. They later gave me others, but Where did I come from? was the best. It describes orgasms sooooo cutely! It says they are satisfying like a BIG sneeze. To a degree that’s true, but the best way to know what an orgasm is is to have one. Actually, don’t have one, have MANY for orgasm are just awesome.

Anyway, for funny stuff, check out the Midwest Teen Sex Show. At the moment, I know I have good taste in funny things. Heck, I know I have good taste in general. Yep, in music for example, I’m listening to the soundtrack from The Fiddler on the Roof as I type this.

On another note, this is my first post on Katie’s wonderful blog. I think it’s a decent post, no? If you think so, say so in the comments. If you don’t, shut up, you’re wrong.

I look forward to blogging a helluva lot more here.

Two Hot Girls In The Shower

Written by Katie Kish in Fun

At first I thought to myself “why have i never seen these before!?” and then I remembered “oooh, because I don’t watch stuff on youtube”…

however - for some reason…these clips entitled “Two Hot Girls In The Shower” make me laugh real hard. Aaaaand so far I’m the only person who thinks so. As everyone else has told me “they’re not that funny”… SHUT UP.

When I saw this, my first thought was “why would a hockey team make prayer mandatory? Especially a Canadian one?”

Then I understood, and felt embarassed and Canadian.

“Although my dental appointment yesterday was mostly without incident, every time the hygienist accidentally scratched my tender pink gum with the sharp scraper tool while cleaning my teeth, I thought about how utterly awful a coat hanger abortion would feel.”
