Annotations

  • has text
    • I attempt to accommodate the phenomenon of vagueness with classical logic and bivalence.$<$span class='Hi'$>$$<$/span$>$ I hold that for any vague predicate there is a sharp cut-off between the things that satisfy it and the things that do not;$<$span class='Hi'$>$$<$/span$>$ I claim that this is due to the greater naturalness of one of the candidate meanings of that predicate.$<$span class='Hi'$>$$<$/span$>$ I extend the thought to the problem of the many and Benacerraf cases.$<$span class='Hi'$>$$<$/span$>$ I go on to explore the idea that it is ontically indeterminate what the most natural meanings are,$<$span class='Hi'$>$$<$/span$>$ and hence ontically indeterminate where the sharp cut-off in a sorites series is.
