Author : Joachim Hertel

Abstract : In this note, we examine Gödel’s own words to review his positions on conceptual and mathematical realism, his argument against the existence of time, and his ontological proof, and evaluate how intertwined and mutually entailed these positions are with Ackermann’s Principle, the Global Reflection Principle, and Necessity

Keywords : Gödel’s Realism, Time, Ontological Proof, Modal Collapse, Ackermann’s Principle, Reflection.
