How could we go about proving a certain "statement" S to be undecidable because it's a non-wff ? It's kind of a silly question for typically we don't have to prove so; just looking at the statement and we'd know. For instance,

| Hierarchy of Infinity | 28 Feb 2004 04:26 GMT | 5 |
The purpose of the following axiomatic system is to generate a hierarchy of objects under the order relations of arithmetic. An unlimited number of related but discrete sets can be generated in an ordered hierarchy. The sets so generated represent a hierarchy of infinite sets.

Consider the expression (e=belongs to) (exist B)(forall x) [x e B <--> x e z & p(x)]. It is stated that B is not free in p(x). Since p(x) is within the scope of (exist B), is B not free in p(x) anyway? The scope of the

Hopefully now *some* of you understand the issue I'm making with the math world, as they have this simple logical mistake, which so far they're refusing to even acknowledge in the mainstream. That leaves me arguing on Usenet, and even then moving from sci.math
