In the spirit of metaphysics

 

What is Ayer's theory of meaning?

"… which an utterance is meaningful only if it expresses a proposition the truth or falsehood of which can be verified (at least in principle) through experience"

Diane Gall from what I've investigated upon which Ayer's categorically states he rejects metaphysical values when dealing with philosophically deduced variables.  (Therefore, I proceed in thinking I have  accurately defined his work.)  When surveying the above formal aspect of Ayer, would you be in agreeance... that it is a flawed (double meaning) as the dichotomy (I think) suggests.  I accuse Ayer of using a double meaning to that end, being, a double meaning can be inferred.  The statement registers that both metaphyiscs and philosophy are NOT separated at birth.  My question: is that experience directly quantifies the measure of reality ONLY if it is meaningful, thereby, what qualifies as experience cannot be understood as metaphysical origin?? That in fact negates Ayer entire premise. 

I think I am being fair here in, not saying Ayer's purposefully does it.

What, as if any query might you offer in rebuttals... either to my own personal view or that there's better proof to what Ayer's has written.

Please oblige myself.

Diane Gall di. You know I love you and everything.  But the article's primary function offering its justification (making its own case) flies in the face of Wittgenstein. Which to me (anyway) is completely inflated and therefore counter intuitive a model.

Wittgenstein’s motto “The sense of a proposition is the method

of its verification” misleads substantially. 

How can the article in question passively negate what is so simplies the model itself.

I promise you I will read the article.  I have to go to staples to print it all out.  But quite frankly the article (not you) insults the law of averages.  I think it's a desperate argument. I could be wrong.  But I think I am onto something in rebuttal. In other words I completely agree with Witt~.  It's an obvious case in point.  Yet the reader is checkmated?? Give me a break...
