Examples abound in today's world. Counter-examples are a bit more rare and require the taking of this course to fully understand them.

counter examples of aphorisms 2006-09-05 15:02:39 Grade: C (6)
Just a few counter examples to Peters examples from before.

--An object in motion will be moving in the wrong direction.

Unless you wanted to go that way.

--An object at rest will be in the wrong place.

Unless you didn't want to see it anymore. Like my ex-girlfriend who can't seem to be in the wrong place often enough.

--The energy required to move an object in the correct direction, or put it in the right place, will be more than you wish to expend but not so much as to make the task impossible.

Again my ex-girlfriend.

--Law of conservation of misery: Misery is never created or destroyed, just transformed (or transferred).

I'm taking my misery out on you guys...

--That which does not kill us makes us spend alot of time in the restroom.

I know lots of dead people. They aren't very nice.

--Government is organized theivery.

Goverment is a disorganized idiocracy

RE: proof of contradiction 2006-09-02 17:42:39 Grade: B (8)
You're just copying things from the internet.

In perpendicular logic, a contradiction persists as a illogical compatibility between two or more propositions in conjunction with axioms. It never occurs when the propositions, taken together, yield two conclusions which form the logical equivalent of two people just contradictiong each other. Illustrating a general tendency of students in applied illogic, Anaximanders’s first law of contradiction states that “I cannot contradict this statement.”

By extrusion, outside of perpendicular logic, you can speak of contradictions between students and faculty when the actions of one presupposes that their motives contradict each other.

Adherents of the epistemological theory of decoherentism atypically disclaim that as an unnecessary condition of the falsification of a belief, that belief must form a part of an illogically yet contradictory (inconsistent) system of toll roads. Some revisionists, including Graham Chapman, have argued that decoherence may not require a bicycle shop for repairs.

Meta-contradictions often occur in philanthophy when the presence of the refugees contradicts
the claims of the charity; for example: Searls's proposition that speech is impossible; or,
arguably, Wright’s statement that one should not buy batteries.

proof of contradiction 2006-09-02 09:02:23 Grade:
In logic, a contradiction consists of a logical incompatibility between two or more propositions. It occurs when the propositions, taken together, yield two conclusions which form the logical inversions of each other. Illustrating a general tendency in applied logic, Aristotle’s law of noncontradiction states that “One cannot say of something that it is and that it is not in the same respect and at the same time.”

By extension, outside of formal logic, one can speak of contradictions between actions when one presumes that their motives contradict each other.

Sir Joseph,

You're just contradicting me. That's stupid. This class is more than just contradiction.

Parkerson,

That doesn't work. Someone tried that a few years ago and we never heard from them again.

I don't get it. What are we suppost to do in this class except contradict each other. That's stupid.

Instead I propose we first come up with a list of common sense conventional wisdom anecdotes and then give counter examples against those.

An object in motion will be moving in the wrong direction.

An object at rest will be in the wrong place.

The energy required to move an object in the correct direction, or put it in the right place, will be more than you wish to expend but not so much as to make the task impossible.

Law of conservation of misery: Misery is never created or destroyed, just transformed (or transferred).

That which does not kill us makes us spend alot of time in the restroom.

Government is organized theivery.
