    Let’s begin with the statement that cannot be proven either to be false or untrue. Take this statement as an inconclusive proof that “All Chickens Are Blue? is non-declarative of its propositional value.


    Some may refute the truthity of its value. What is the case against ?

    Thank you gentlemen.

    Not guilty (untrue) or Innocent (false)?

    Most interesting. — Ms. Marple

    Untrue isn't necessarily false in multivalent logic; lucklily or unluckily, I'm unaware of the other alternatives. Some say truth is a continuum [n% true and (100 - n)% false] as in fuzzy logic, others posit a discrete 3rd option like in trivalent logic. Most of these topics remain above my paygrade. Oh well!

    What makes a proposition unprovable? When the axioms are not sufficent to do so (anepikrita/undecidable).

    That's all she wrote ...
