I agree so much with you.

Where would I have pretended something like that.

All what I say is that if my (generalized) brain is Turing emulable, Aristotle metaphysics is wrong.

You steal the words of my mouth.

And then science consists in making only verifiable 3p statements. But we can prove things on 1p notion, with 3p axiomatic definition of them. The advantage of axiomatic, is that we don't need to pretend knowing what we are talking about. We just agree on definition and laws.
