How to prove it in propositional logic?
In propositional logic, you have Th M |= A
iff A element of Th M.

Could you please show a concrete example to
Th M |/= forall y R(c,y)
Th M |/= exists y not R(c,y).
The book written by my teacher says it is true in first-order logic.
Maybe a badly written book, or
I was too quick.

I think M must be at least countably
infinite, otherwise Th M is again
complete.

Example comming soon.
