I have 7 English translation of Kant's CPR. The one you refer to by J. M. D. Meiklejohn is not very accurate compared to the Smith, Guyer & Wood translation.godelian wrote: ↑Sun Mar 31, 2024 6:20 amFor reasons of convenience, Gutenberg publishes the text in one long text file:Veritas Aequitas wrote: ↑Sun Mar 31, 2024 5:59 am Reference mean the page number from the CRP usually in the form of [A...

Page numbers depend on the publication format. They are not a stable referencing mechanism because the number of pages depends on the publication size and format.
I have only read it to see what Kant said about mathematics. Fundamentally, I am not much impressed with his classification of statements using the (analytic,synthetic) and (a priori,a posteriori) dichotomies. Even though it is not wrong, nobody has built anything on top of that. In mathematics, the dichotomy (analytic,synthetic) corresponds to (axiom, theorem). I have never run into a mathematical publication that argued that we should switch to Kant's vocabulary.Veritas Aequitas wrote: ↑Sun Mar 31, 2024 5:59 am Re the CPR I had spent 3 years full time reading and analyzing it since long ago and continuously reading it to the present.
The Kant's CPR reference [A../B...] refer to the pages on the original German Edition so it it the same throughout all other translations. I will try to find the reference.
You think WIKI reference is highly authoritative?This is certainly not any counterargument mentioned in the page on Gödel's ontological proof:Veritas Aequitas wrote: ↑Sun Mar 31, 2024 5:30 am Since Godel's argument is an ontological argument,
therefore it is impossible for Godel's argument, to prove God exists as real.

Kant's alleged impossibility is simply not even mentioned in this page. His work is just not considered relevant enough for that purpose. The critics deemed relevant enough are: Sobel, Koons, Anderson, Gettings, Oppy, Spitzer, and Fuhrmann. For historical reasons, Anselm and Leibniz are also mentioned, mostly because they attempted something similar. It is obvious why Kant is not mentioned in this page. There is no mention of Kant because his impossibility proof is considered worthless nonsense.
Your statement above merely insults your own intellectual integrity especially when you have not read Kant's CPR thoroughly.There is no mention of Kant because his impossibility proof is considered worthless nonsense.
