Comments to Neutrosophy
Carlos Gershenson

TL;DR
This paper discusses the concept of Neutrosophy, emphasizing its relative and context-dependent nature, and proposes 'metacontextuality' to encompass multiple contexts for reducing incompleteness in systems of knowledge.
Contribution
It offers comments to improve Neutrosophy by introducing the idea of 'metacontextuality' to contain multiple contexts and address system incompleteness.
Findings
Neutrosophy is less-incomplete than many systems because it contains them.
The 'silly theorem problem' is partially addressed.
Relativity of logic to context is emphasized.
Abstract
Any system based on axioms is incomplete because the axioms cannot be proven from the system, just believed. But one system can be less-incomplete than other. Neutrosophy is less-incomplete than many other systems because it contains them. But this does not mean that it is finished, and it can always be improved. The comments presented here are an attempt to make Neutrosophy even less-incomplete. I argue that less-incomplete ideas are more useful, since we cannot perceive truth or falsity or indeterminacy independently of a context, and are therefore relative. Absolute being and relative being are defined. Also the "silly theorem problem" is posed, and its partial solution described. The issues arising from the incompleteness of our contexts are presented. We also note the relativity and dependance of logic to a context. We propose "metacontextuality" as a paradigm for containing as…
