True, False, and Paranormal
J.C. Beall, U. of Connecticut
12:05 pm, 817R Cathedral of Learning

Abstract: This is a work in progress. Let 'dtrue' be a unary predicate such that dtrue<A> and A are intersubstitutable in all (transparent) contexts. There are two standard approaches to dtruth-theoretic paradox, namely, paraconsistent and paracomplete, each facing standard problems. I propose a modest alternative, one that serves as a sort of compromise between the two standard approaches.
