He died because he did not want to eat for fear of being poisoned.
Was he really that smart?

>>8613758
If maths is not objective, nothing is objective. Something is objective, therefore maths is objective. QED

Applied math is. Most modern theory is pretty much math for the sake of math, with a few exceptions

subjective

>>8613775
It's the idealism that matters

In the end the question is
>Is logic objective
No way to prove that without using logic again.

>>8613758
Hmm, a philosophical question really. We can assume in our general framework that it is objective though as it is based on operations and properties that are unchanged regardless of the operant

I know what math is.
I would tell you what math is, but...
you is evidence based

its actually quite sad. imagine how devastated his wife must have been

Is this syllogism objective?

Any deductive system is objective, as long as everyone agrees on the axioms of the system.

his wife died first, that's why godel starved himself. he was such a misogynyst pig that he would only eat food she prepared for him. we really shouldn't hold his work in such high regard

If by "objective" you mean "true now and for all time regardless of who observes it" then mathematical constructs with proofs are indeed objective. This is the big advantage Math has over other branches of science, Math is literally logically provable whereas generally, science depends on observation and is only ever a "best-guess-based-on-current-observations".

A mathematical proof is true for all time, in observational science the only thing you can ever be absolutely sure about is being wrong (when a new observation makes mincemeat of your conjecture/hypothesis/theory)
