The 2+2=5 Society.

2+2=x
x^2 = 4+4
x^2-bx = 16-bx
x^2-bx+c= c+16-bx
find the discrimant = b^2-4ac
x^2-4(16)c = x^2-64
x^2-64<0
-8<x<8
Therefore
x = 5

x^2-4(16)c = x^2-64c surely? I'm not following how you've managed to eliminate the c.

x^2-4(16)c = x^2-64c surely? I'm not following how you've managed to eliminate the c.

The fact that "2+2=5" is not a matter of so-called "logic" or so-called "mathematics" invented by the disbelievers. It is a matter of faith. If you could prove that 2+2=5 then you wouldn't need faith. Even if such a proof existed it would be so amazing and so wonderful that it would be beyond human comprehension. Don't ask why. Just believe it within yourself.

Also, can we get away from the discussion of whether 2+2=5 and lets talk about how we can live a good life in accordance with the fact that 2+2=5. For example, can we eat hoofed animals on Wednesdays? I would say it is unnumerical because Wednesday=3 and animals have 4 hooves. We should only eat hoofed animals on even days of the week. Then the food is numerical.

Also, some people say that 2+2=5 means that men should have there foreskin removed. What do you think?

Fatal error. In your second line of working you can't simply square each separate number and add them. x^2 would equal 16, not 4+4

I'm a non-believer but won't try to change your mind.
You've been brainwashed by the ministry of truth so there's nothing I can do to convince you.

I came with the hopes of this thread being about Nineteen Eighty-Four, and I have not been disappointed.

$2+2 \equiv 5 \mod(1)$Nayysayers begone, for I have lain bare the truth before thine own eyes.

I don't know if anyone else got the reference.

It amazes me someone has actually gone to the length to write that.

But $2+2 \equiv 4 \mod(1)$
DJMayes is the false prophet. He tried to trick us all with his fancy mathematics, but he is non-believer and actually thinks 2+2=4.

in your world, what is 2 + 3 = ?

if 2 + 3 = 6, then by extension 2 = 3. If 2 = 3, then 2 + 2 = 6. Therefore if you believe 2 + 2 = 5, then you should also believe 2 + 2 = 6.

You claim false prophecy, yet you cannot deny the words I have spoken.
