I have no idea what you mean by this. No "absolute truth was exposed," nor was it attempted.
The "paradox" (which is something that doesn't actually exist) is based on math (an infinite sum of 1/2^n). Math is logically consistent, it also never makes statements of Truth, because it is axiomatic (see Goedel's thm. of completeness, the Turing machine, etc.). The problem people have is, in logic, we state a thing is "true" when what we really mean is "logically consistent." This unfortunate nomenclature (like "imaginary numbers") is often confusing for many people.
There is a huge difference between "logic true" and "The Truth" AKA Reality. In the case above I was merely showing how the language of science (math) shows, in a self-consistent way, that science can only approach the truth asymptotically (at best), and can never actually reach it.
If you want to explain how you think I've made a logical error, you will have to be more explicit, because your one liner makes no sense to me. I see no error.
This may very well be true. I never made claims that I would. I've tried my whole life and I only have more questions. Nevertheless, that was never my point. My point was that science (which I have also spent my whole life on) will never tell it to me, because it can't.
Forgive me for quoting a singer... but isn't math related to science?
Math is the language of science (sorta). It is at least the language of physics. I stated that in my response. I may have edited it after you read it.
So yes, agreed. Very much related. That was pretty much the whole point of my last response.
So the logically consistant language of science gave you a piece of information that says that i will not attain Truth but the information itself is an absolute Truth (assuming it to be true) unless it isn't in which case then science could attain Truth if the previous point of not finding Truth is true
And respect to your typing speed, kindness and overall communication skills either way, full appreciation. You rock
