/lit/ - Literature

Critics are absolutely useless pieces of shit, only surpassed by leech landlords.

What are some literary magnum opuses outside of the meme maximalist books? A work that perfectly utilizes an authors philosophy to create their ultimate lifework?

>4. We call this total knowledge or truth omniscience
>5. Therefore omniscience exists
This doesn't prove that omniscience exists, this proves it CAN exist, an even that you get wrong because all knowledge will forever remain fragmentary and incomplete. You've proved that a limited version of omniscience exists, also known as the mind. You've proved we have a mind. Great job.
also, you have no way of linking that knowledge to god. Also knowledge doesn't need a possessor, as most concepts we have knowledge in are constructed by humans and not naturalistic. You are falsely equivocating knowledge with natural truth, and truths just evolved by change. No truth was ever eternal, thereby not making it "natural". It is only natural from our perspective.

>Of course the average mathematician will reply that there is no such thing as an "obvious" fact, and everything should be autistically justified with axioms and definitions. Too bad that you can't define evrything and you can't prove everything, even Aristotle knew that. So we have to stop at some point, and mathematicians somehow believe that it is better to stop at certain points rather than others, and of course they have no justification for this since they themselves know that there are no "obvious", self-evident facts.
