What has any of that to do with what I wrote? Every statement follows from itself. That is a logical truth. And what has any of that to do with God and the rest? Godel was a paranoid, and mystical. But he was not stupid.


Every statement follows from itself, is false.

p -> p, does not prove p is true. It says if p is true then p is true.

p -> p, is true even if p is false.

Your understanding of 'proof' will not do.
