... An interesting consequence of Church's Theorem is that rst-order logic is incomplete (as a theory), because it is obviously consistent and axiomatizable but not decidable. This, however, is not surprising. Since there is an unlimited number of models for rst-order logic, there are plenty of rst-o ...

However, have to keep in mind that there are many non-standard models for the theory Q in which the basic laws of the natural numb ...

Even though i Q is extremely weak as you see from Problem Set 3 from Boolos & Jeffrey, we can, nevertheless, show in constructive type theory, either ...
