![]() ![]() I really like what MacLean is doing in this series by turning modern day celebrity scandals into historical romances and this is a really good one. ![]() Now, regular readers will know that I’m a big fan of Sarah MacLean’s books and although this isn’t my favourite of hers (still a tie between Nine Rules to Break When Romancing a Rake and Never Judge a Lady by Her Cover I think) it was still my favourite thing that I read last week by far. This is the second in MacLean’s Scandal and Scoundrel series and tells the story of Lily, who is facing public ruin after posing for a portrait that she thought was going to be private, and Alec, a Scotsman who has already inherited a title he didn’t want and wasn’t expecting and now discovers that he has a ward and that she’s caused a scandal. I read a lot of cozy crime ARCs last week but in the end the choice for BotW was easy: Sarah MacLean’s A Scot in the Dark. ![]() A day late, because of my birthday special post, but I’m sure you don’t mind waiting. ![]()

Gödel's incompleteness theorem is based on: "The true reason for the incompleteness that is inherent in all formal systems of mathematics lies in the fact that the generation of higher and higher types can be continued into the transfinite whereas every formal system contains at most countably many. I would be very grateful if someone could respond to these questions:Īre there legitimate applications of Gödel's theorems to the existence of God, or theology in general?ĭo any significant philosophers or theologians ever express views of this kind? In fact, I only saw such arguments either in the process of being rebutted, or expressed by people whom I find it very hard to take seriously. Given that nowadays people hold all sorts of irrational views, I can't say I am surprised - but I would be if a serious and respectable person supported such arguments. Personally, I fail to see sense in such reasoning (of course, this does not necessarily say much, because I could be missing something). Arguments against God go like this: "Because of Gödel's Theorem, omniscience is impossible, hence an all-knowing God cannot exist". Arguments for the existence of God run mostly along the lines: "Because of Gödel's Theorem, truth transcends human understanding, and therefore there is God". I have seen it argued that Gödel's Incompleteness Theorems have implications regarding the existence of God. ![]() ![]() ![]() But when you do kill us, as we know you will, you will regret it.
