a tribute to the Hegel Prize for the disregard of the log ik 2010
Thomas Steinschneider
Ladies and Gentlemen, Friends,
love today, we have a very special reason out together. Today we honor a man who has done for us, for all its people and for all generations to come out of the ordinary. I speak of course of Mr Christoph Maria Michael Hugo Damian Peter Adalbert Cardinal Schönborn. walking in the footsteps of his Lord Jesus Christ, this pastor decided on a frugal life of Humility and modesty to preserve the immortal souls of his sheep from the undoubtedly deserved eternal damnation. But his privation existence between Audi limousines, Bishop Palace and its television studio seemed to inspire him by God himself blown and so restless mind only. For not only does it pleased the Lord in heaven, to guard him with incontrovertible arguments against scientific delusions such as the theory of evolution . No, it was the dogs of the Lord even to open up in defense of the teachings of his donor rolls entirely new way of logical reasoning for all of humanity! And this last one, maybe his biggest act, we want today at least a small share of the credit can get that it deserves. Let me first quote again his excellent and seminal statement:
" If he celibacy would blame [the sexual abuse], then there should be no abuse in the family."
we do here and now, look at this solemn occasion, not the dirty occasion, to whom we owe this breakthrough in human thought - those damnable anti-religious left some media smear campaign against an institution that humanity owes nothing less than morality per se! Finally, know, the last upper Bavarian Catholic from the divine depth of his heart out with certainty that pagan and atheistic cultures used to eat the whole of humanity throughout history at Christmas their children, made possible by love mutual immanence of God the Father and God the Son did not realize and on television is nothing but tits and advertising for blähbauchreduzierenden brought yogurt. And now it is thanks to Cardinal Schönborn, that we owe to the Christianity of today is not only the morality but also one of the greatest advances in the venerable science of logic since Aristotle's Analytica Priora.
Let me elaborate on something performance of the cardinal received. First, we must note that behind the "debt" have hides in his testimony actually the negative formulation of a cause. If celibacy were the cause of sexual abuse, then there should be a sexual abuse in families, say it. Some will argue now want the high praise worthy winners but just "forgets" that there may be a matter for several reasons. And such small "forgotten" details are for the good of the salvation of the sheep in the Catholic Church so not that unusual. So where should this be calculated disregard of logic, will be awarded for the Cardinal Schönborn? To see this, we have to penetrate a little deeper into the guiding statements of the winner. To appreciate the excellent statement completely, we will try to formalize it logically. Since it obviously is not possible to combine logical facts, but only sets, we first need the facts, that "A", replace by the corresponding set, "A", . Have we done this once, we must first "his cause of" logical formalized, eg by using the concept of minimal theory : A factor A is if and causally relevant to another factor B if it is included in the antecedent of the theory of minimal B . (Of course, these are just the condition for direct causal relevance. With respect to the late hour I was here, this restriction allows them.) we remind ourselves what a minimal theory of B is. A minimal theory of B is an Doppelkonditional with a minimally necessary disjunction of minimally sufficient Terms of B the antecedent, and B in consequence, so that each factor in the antecedent of B at any extension of the Doppelkonditionals is maintained. For logic formalization, it is now only a small step. All that remains to do is, write down the Doppelkonditional formal:
[(AX ∨ Y) ∧ F → B] ∧ [B → (AX ∨ Y) ∧ F]
This squeezes out of nothing more than that A is causally relevant for B . Or, if A is the celibate life, and B of sexual abuse, we now have the formal record of Cardinal Schönborn's premise "If celibacy would blame ...".
Now we must still make the conclusion. "There is no abuse in the Family" is now nothing more than
¬ [¬ (AX ∧ F) ∧ B]
is the entire logical conclusion of the winner so
{[(AX ∨ Y) ∧ F → B] ∧ [B → (AX ∨ Y) ∧ F]} → {¬ [¬ (AX ∧ F) ∧ B]}
Now we form using the relationship (Q → P) ≡ ¬ (Q ∧ ¬ P) nor the conclusion at:
{[(AX ∨ Y) ∧ F → B] ∧ [B → (AX ∨ Y) ∧ F] → {B} → (AX ∧ F)}
And only now revealed the full depth, the whole vision of the laureates! The "classic" "∨ Y" is eliminated! We are facing a conclusion in which she could discover only a special genius. And while the science is faced with a challenge. The performance of the cardinal, it is also at the same time calling and task. Do we really need the whole premise for this conclusion? Can we simplify even directly from an X → (Y ∨ Z) → X to Y? For a long time after us, the greatest minds of future generations look into this matter be. And long after our people will wrestle with the intellectual challenges of a distinguished Catholics like Cardinal Schönborn. But we ourselves are forced to content ourselves today with a quick glance at this broad field. But we must be grateful. Thankful that it was permitted us to be there, as this wide field of an outstanding intellectual figure as Cardinal Schönborn was opened for mankind. And with this final thought, it's up to me to open the buffet. Of course, this also alcoholic beverages are served. For alcohol, which is now exactly what it asked for the simple mind now. Thank you. (This fact then joined another 17 min 23 sec continuous applause.)
