you're an exemplary scholar of these notions, but look at the entire load of
jibberish it forces you to output. what a load of crap, there is nothing
you are doing here that peano + modus ponens can't do exactly the same.
in your mass halucinagenic induced state you all summon G as undeniably
true and concoct local_truthity as its conduit.

I understood godels proof for a decade, there is no use explaining what I now
understand is a wrong proof to me, if you don't listen to why its wrong and go into
parrot mode repeatedly I can't help you. G pops up in every such a consistent
model, I know BIG DEAL. Whats you definition of consistent? It has *a*
solution either true or false. In those models G will pop up as a valid formula ture,
and "this statement P is false" will nicely get truncated from the forumula list, added
to syntactically erronous formula when its syntax is on par with G.

Just think, ALL PROVEN TRUE THINGS HAVE A PROOF.

Why don't you accept that as a true formula? it pops up everywhere too, it craps on G.
