Hi there. I'm a newbie to this forum, but not to philosophy in general. Though I am self-educated, I live in San Antonio, TX, and I enjoy thinking things out. Growing up, I was just way ahead of too many kids. They made my life miserable with their cruelties... *sniff* Indeed, most of my friends growing up were adults, adults who were capable of teaching me things I never knew before.

So. What am I doing here? I wonder if most people come to philosophy forums in order to spread their pet theories about their pet subjects. I know I like to share my ideas. I don't expect everyone to agree, though. I'd be pretty petty to think that.

I enjoy debate almost as much as I enjoy my food. To me, debate is a sport, so I often get caught up in meaningless arguments just for the fun of it. Sometimes I hurt people's feelings, the one's who take it personal when someone *gasp* disagrees with them.

Sooo... yeah. I'm sorry I sound like such a dunce. I'll get better. don't you worry about it. Wink

@Sekiko,

Welcome Sekiko!

I'm sure you will enjoy philosophy forum if you look at it from an objective mind frame. There is certainly room for your theories, so feel free to talk about them all you wish? I'm sure we will all love to talk with you about them.

Is there anything in particular that you are working on right now?

@VideCorSpoon,

I've become fascinated by alternatives to Boolean Logic. In my studies, I've come across something called 4VBC, which stands for 4ValueBitCode. For all intents and purposes, it seems to have succeded in accomadating a more linguistic reflection on information theory as opposed to Bitwise.

Right now, I'm also taking a whack at language construction and syntax to get a further grasp on lingustics. I have a real knack for information theory and epistemics when viewed through a linguistic lens. But enough with the free treats, you'll hear the stuff soon enough. :shifty:

...lol.

@Sekiko,

It's great to have another member interested in logical sub-systems. There are quite a few of them on the forum, so you will not be lacking any comments when you post your theories.

I've seen posts on 4VBC calculus on some other philosophy forums, and I am not too gleamy eyed about it. Basic truth tables in particular seem to do the job that Boolean logic attempts to complicate in practical applications? if anything, truth trees are actually more thorough. I started a symposia on propositional logic (which I need to finish) that goes into the basic truth table formats if there is any interest.

In particular, if you are interested in language construction, you might be interested in propositional and predicate logic for starters. I have found it invaluable in my studies. You might also be interested in etymology as well.

As for the free treats, thanks! I hope to digest them in the near future! Have a blast on the forum!

Welcome to the philosophy forums Sekiko. The members here are devoted to truth (not the Truth) and understanding. Here one of the basic ideas is that everyone agrees to disagree. Some ideas are better than others and we are just trying to weed through garden.
