A short 30 minute video which combined set theory with grammar and ends up with a paradox which destroys all written code. For the philosophers out there.

A = { x : an event real or imagined } describes the set of all events that might be discussed

B = { x : a real event } and C = { x : an imaginary event } are subsets of the first set and the union of these two subsets will equal A. The intersection of B and C is the null set (signifying that all events can be classified either real or imagined).

D = { x : an event past}
E = { x : an event present }
F = { x : an event future }

Now the moon landing and the Boston marathon bombing are elements of sets D and A. Either event may be considered a member of B or C but at this point we really have insufficient evidence to assign a B/C determination. But we can rule out these as belonging to sets E or F. The reason is our senses determine our present and our imaginations create our future.

All future events may be assigned to sets C and F. These events are speculation. Global warming is such an event.

The events you have to worry about are B/E events. A tornado at your front door is a B/E. A hurricane, a fire, your car having an accident while you are driving is a B/E. Putin knocking on your door announcing he wants to be your friend is a B/E.

You broke your arm 30 years ago. This is a B/C member. It was real and you can still feel the bump.

A Flat Earth is a mathematical concept that involves geometry. Think of a pyramid. This is a three dimensional object (and maybe more). When viewed from directly below it appears as a 2d square object. FLAT Now imagine there is a point in space where a sphere may be observed where it appears FLAT. Anywhere on the surface would fit this concept. Above it appears as a sphere. Below the surface and you become part of the object.


G = { x : it occupies a position on the surface of a sphere }.

G represents any object real or imagined that is not above or below the surface that defines the sphere. G describes a Flat Earther's view. The Living belong to G. The Dead do not. Their view is from 6 ft below the surface and they become Earth.

Biden isn't president on Flat Earth. Just ask him. His view is Earth is a sphere. He is saying he is above the Earth and not on the Earth. His view is from somewhere off in space. The perfect definition of an ALIEN!
