Jesus, what did I just watch? Stoner makes atheist angry with gibberish for half an hour?
Not Dillahunty's finest hour (from 20mins to 23mins ish) either mind you. Stuff is "partially true" or "undefined" on a regular basis. And he's certainly wrong to say that "true or not true" is simply not down to defintion (or convention). He should stay away from logic, it's an expert subject and he's not an expert. Even in classical logic a gibberish phrase would not map into either "true" or "not true", it would be semantically incorrect.
