Subject: CONTRADICTION IN ZFC: E(Y) Y C Z ^ (XeY <-> P(X,Y))
ZF just modified NAIVE SET THEORY
E(Y) XeY <-> P(X,Y)
so Russell's Paradox "doesn't hold".
E(Y) Y C Z ^ ( XeY <-> P(X,Y) )
=
E(Y) XeY <-> xeZ ^ P(X,Y)
=
A(z): A(p1,p2..pn):
=
which is just
________________________________
So to find a CONTRADICTION IN ZFC
we need to formulate a Superset Z that Russell's Set can be a subset
E(Y) Y C Z ^ ( XeY <-> P(X,Y) ) //ZFC AXIOM OF SPECIFICATION
LET P(X,Y) = X~eX
Y = RUSSELL'S SET
LET Z = { Y }
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axiom_of_regularity
But if Y contains all sets that don't contain themselves,
Z does not contain itself, so ZeY
No contradiction, so the singleton { RUSSELLSSET } could exist in ZFC.
This doesn't seem to be prevented by Axiom_Of_Regularity
Indeed AOR seems superfluous, if all it does is prevent:
XeXeXeX...
but cannot prevent
XeYeXeY...
it doesn't solve any class of problematic constructions.
So if RSeZ
How does tacking on the subset_of_z constraint to Naive S.T.
how does SPECIFICATION (into a subset) prevent RUSSELL SETS?
Z itself has to be CONSTRUCTED as a subset of some further set.
Specify 2 RUSSELL SETS
RS1 = { RS2, ... }
then RS1 = { X | X e RS2 ^ P1(X,Y) }
BOTH RS1 and RS2 are RUSSELL SETS so Pn(X,Y)=X~eX
then RS1 = { X | X e RS2 ^ X~eX }
BOTH RUSSELL SETS specified in ZFC!
