The Pope is also understood to have had a hand in drafting the carefully worded proposition by which the matter was put to a vote.
For clarity the policy here will be to continue to apply the word "proposition" exclusively to Russellian propositions at the level of reference.
That is to say, such theorists eschew propositions as reference-level entities: of course the word "proposition" may be, and sometimes is, applied to Fregean Thoughts at the level of sense, rather than Russellian propositions at the level of reference.
In the terminology of the new theory, the word "proposition" was used not for an objective metaphysical complex, but simply for an interpreted declarative sentence, an item of language.
The Republicans spent heavily to place on the ballot a series of deceptively worded propositions that were an assault on California's working middle class.
In other words, a proposition is necessary (or expresses a necessary truth) if, in analyzing it, one arrives at a statement of identities.
In other words, a proposition is contingently true when it is true in that world and false in some other world.
In other words, the proposition \ \bA \brightarrow \bB\) is just the type of functions from \ \bA\) to \ \bB\): Similarly, all that should be required of a proof \(c\) of the conjunction \ \bA \wedge \bB\) is that it should yield proofs \(x\) and \ y\) of \ \bA\) and \ \bB\), respectively.
In other words, the proposition hit me at a time when I needed a shake-up and was vulnerable enough to accept a temporary job 1,000 miles away without hesitation.
In other words, the proposition that we (whoever we are) have obligations related to the health of non-compatriots is not rejected out of hand, but the content and limits of those obligations are not specified.
In other words, some propositions of the EI-type (propositions about the "external" world) can be used to neutralize the grounds for ordinary incredulity.
