Contradiction

[DennisRB]

"Importance of philosophy

A contradiction arises when two ideas each make the other impossible. Contradictions don't exist in reality because reality simply is as it is and does not contradict itself. Only our evaluations of reality can contradict each other. If you think you have found a contradiction, then check your premises. Either you're mistaken about it being a contradiction or one of the contradicting concepts has been improperly formed.

If the content of your knowledge contains contradictions, then some of your knowledge is in error. Because in order to be successful in reality one must know reality, success requires correct knowledge. It is therefore important to continually search for and root out contradictions in your knowledge in order to make sure that your knowledge corresponds to reality. The two primary methods for doing this are logic, the art of non-contradictory identification, and integration."


I think that most theists have not been able to grasp this concept. Its pretty hard to hold a religion together once you can understand it. :)

peepnklown: The bible contains contradictions.
Christian: No it doesn’t.
peepnklown: *provides evidence*
Christian: You are taking things out of context.
peepnklown: *provides more direct evidence*
Christian: You require the “holy spirit” to understand the bible.

They make up things to go around contradictions, its like trying to talk to little children.
