My purpose in refuting the HP proofs is to establish the required
truckload of credibility so that my Gödel and Tarski reasoning will be
accepted. My purpose in getting this reasoning accepted is to formalize
the notion of truth to anchor Davidson's truth conditional semantics.

After having completed all of that I would like to lead a team to derive
the process required for automatically populating knowledge ontologies
such as the Cyc project. I have determined that this is the key required
step to create a fully functional human mind from software.

So, you post falsehoods in an attempt to get credibility. You HAVE
clearly showed how "Credible" your logic is. You claim to have proven
that a Halting Program can be correctly decided as non-halting by lying
about the criteria used to measure it.

You have even admitted that H^ applied to H^ Halts (aka P(P)), just that
for some reason that isn't the criteria that you H needs to use, when it
is LITERALLY the Definition.

If you need to "prove" something that is false to be true to show a
logic system is valid seems to be a good arguement against it. With the
reputation you are establishig, probably the best thing you could do is
NOT talk about it.

And what do any of those have to do with doing the last?

This all reads like a joke.

Unrelenting posts on Halt dividers, embarked on with no sight of an
end clause, ....continue until exhausted.

Beyond logic or reason, there is just occupation, life. Intentions
exceeds the reasons for this function. There is no reason except it
can or must. At its core, a mismatch of motives.

Halt deciders == Halt dividers , error made with trolls in mind,
and their typical subtext when acting in this way on Usenet forums.
