EvaluationThe verification principle ends arguments about what can be meaningful and if followed, would mean the only conversations could be about mathematics, science and other topics only known to be true beyond reasonable doubt; however, without knowing what exactly is reasonable doubt means that discussion would be limited. While we may agree religion and ethics is meaningless, that doesn't mean it is valueless; religion has value to believers and has shown to have some benefit to society, showing that just because something is meaningless doesn't mean it should be disregarded. This theory is too rigid, including weak verification and so is not suitable for determining what should be considered meaningful in all senses of the word. |
