<Han.deBruijn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> fed this fish to the penguins:
Time to hook in with an improved version of my purported "Proof that ZFC
is inconsistent" (well, it's not the proper thread, but ..). Scrutinize,
please.
The proof is wrong: left as an exercise to the reader.
Just one simple question: *honestly* what do you think is the chance
that you will stumble upon an inconsistency proof of ZFC? Literally
thousands of people have gone over the axioms and no one has found a
contradiction, so what do you think your chances are, given that your
mathematical skills are poor at best and your knowledge of ZFC is
non-existent?
Why do you not dedicate yourself to create *positive value*? If you
want to do mathematics why don't you, I don't know, create a "limit
concept a la calculus" (using your own words) that only uses finitary
objects? That would surely be a sight. Do something of *value* instead
of wasting your time with purported proofs of ZFC inconsistency that
are shot down in the blink of an eye. Do you see *serious*
mathematicians of finitist, intuitionist, constructivist, etc.
persuasion, loosing their time in concocting lame ZFC inconsistency
proofs? Stop acting the crank.

G. Rodrigues
