But they are probably indifferent to differences between different infinite cardinalities. (countable/uncountable) - (> Loewenheim). - - - VII (f) 118 Universals/ontology/Truth Functions/Quine: another, bolder way to abstract universals is to make them accessible to quantification. Thus we expand the truth-functional logic! "(p)", "(Ep)" etc. are then no longer only schematic. They can accept suitable entities as values, especially propositions or better, truth values. >Ontology, >Universals. - - - VII (h) 156ff Language/Truth Functions/Intensionality/Opacity/Quine: any non-truth functional language leads to opaque contexts. >Intensionality. - - - V 188 Science/Opacity/Quine: Solution: Restriction of the scientific language to truth functions and object quantification. >Opacity, >Quantification. - - - I 115 The truths of the truth-functional part of logic are the tautologies. >Tautologies. - - - II 17 Example "As soon as (when) it becomes night, the lamps are lit" Here "as soon as" is a connecting particle comparable with the truth functions. By chance it rather leads to permanent sentences. II 192 From today's point of view, quantifier logic is nothing more than a further development of the logic of truth functions. The truth value of a truth function can be calculated on the basis of the truth values of the arguments. Why then does quantifier logic not become decidable by truth tables? This validity criterion would be too strict, because the quantified partial expressions are not always independent from each other! However, the truth table is fully functional if all variables are independent of each other.}, note = { Quine I W.V.O.
