truth-value

As a result, the "mainstream" viewpoint and conventional wisdom do not have the predictive power and truth-value they once did — if indeed they ever did.

On Morning Joe Wednesday, co-host Joe Scarborough responded to claims by Trump strategist Paul Manafort that there are secrets about the Clintons yet to be revealed by saying that regardless of the truth-value of Manafort’s threat, such things are going to make it very difficult for the Hillary Clinton campaign to control Bill in the general election.

In a clever twist, the authors interleaved two kinds of statements — “consistent” ones that had the same truth-value under a naive theory and a proper scientific theory, and “inconsistent” ones.

They transport reason and emotions, evidence suggestion, certainty contingency, truth-value imagination, rational understanding extra-rational meaning, and they call on us to better understand how all these impulses actively shape public response to the news.

For himself, this meant the denial of truth-value to any religion whatever, including Judaism.
