The limitations of logic in the pursuit of a deeper understanding of the nature of reality has been encountered by mathematicians, philosophers, scientists, theologians, psychologists, and by people from any field of study, or walk of life, no matter their religious, political, or intellectual affiliation or belief. Any curious and thinking person who engages with abstract thought, the material world, or the nature of the cosmos, other people, or any pursuit of the mind inevitably runs up against the limitations of the ability of reason and logic to explain, interact with, and understand the mysteries of the universe. Drawing on Kurt Gödel's application of the 'Paradox of Undecidability' from his Incompleteness
Theorems (1931), The Destruction of Logic from Within will expand on G.W. Leibniz'
concept of the 'incompossible' and apply it to the limits of logic. This new volume will propose the idea that logic itself can potentially hold within it the ability to surpass its own limitations. The Destruction of Logic from Within will do this by exploring the idea that the internal breakdown of logic itself can become a logically useful tool. When logic reaches its point of breakdown and internal contradiction, an opportunity arises to find meaning in the greater awareness of humanity's limitations of understanding. This, despite many advancements in science and material improvement. Meanwhile, the book's tone is set by telling the story of how spiritual freedom of conscience led to improved well-being for those who sought out a new beginning in North America.
The Destruction of Logic from Within will examine the biblical basis of freedom of conscience, and for the rationalist skeptic, put biblical coherence under a microscope. As well, each chapter builds on the previous toward presenting a compelling case for accepting the enduring Christian message of God's love. Brought to you by Idea Factory Press, Scarborough, Canada.
