Re: what makes it true?

I don't know this theorem. I do know however the soundness theorem
that states that if a statement has a proof from a set of axioms
then it is true in any model where the axioms hold. Thus if something
can be proved it is true. I would appreciate it if you explain more
about this Goodstein theorem, or explain how can it be that what you
claim doesn't contradict the soundness theorem
Better Google it up (just by: "Goodstein's Theorem") than asking *me*
for an explanation.
