Except that it doesn't mean that, except to a liar. You even agreed that not a true statements have a finite sequence of steps, you are admit that you definition here is just false and your stating it a a definition to be a LIE. > > ~True(L,x) ∧ ~True(L,~x) > means that x is not a truth-bearer in L. > It does not mean that L is incomplete > And thus you show yourself to be a LIAR, as you just said that the Goldbach's conjecture COULD be an Analytic Truth, and thus a Truth Bearer, even if it didn't meet your supposed new definitoion of "Truth". All you have done is LIED and named the "Provable" predicate to be now called "True" in your system. It CAN'T be a "truth" predicate, because it doesn't correctly handle statement you have agreed are true.
