Davidsch, I'm afraid I don't get your point neither. This forum is a discussion board, so if you'd like to post something but would not like that to be discussed, this forum probably is not the optimal place for that - not because you are not welcome to post Voynich considerations, but because we can't (and have no reasons to) prohibit those being discussed by others.

but the fact that I will not elaborate on it, as explained why,
does not change the fact that they are my theorems.
Would be nice if you respect that.
I have no wishes whatsoever in this relation, and even if I had, this would not prevent you to publish them wherever you want. I could not find where I showed any doubt in that these propositions are
yours. What I clearly asked is whether those are theorems or postulates, which is not clear from your subject post because you provided no proof, and, further, if theorems, then if any proof thereof is available at all. I can recognize no disrespect in that, just natural scientific discourse. When one puts forward a theorem, he is usually asked whether proof is available, and theorems as such are statements to be proved.

There is no such rule that you cannot post your "theorems" here, neither you are obliged to prove them or call them whatsoever. One can call a horse a cat, that's not prohibited by any rules, that only looks strange and not very appropriate in a structured discussion. May it be possible that you do not understand what a "theorem" is? A theorem is a statement to be proved based on logically preceding statements, be that other theorems or postulates (axioms). So when one calls something a "theorem", the first and natural question is whether the statement has been proved or has been not.
Quote:Proving anything is the most difficult task one can ask from anyone in general,
in this context perhaps impossible.
Proving theorems is not always simple, some theorems take centuries to be proven. But if it is impossible to prove a statement, it should not be called a theorem, rather a hypothesis or postulate (depending on the context).
Quote:With this pedantic comment, telling me what I posted and how to call it (proposal? no!),
is the same as saying to me to shut up. Which I will at this point, because admin's always have the last word.
This was not "telling" but "asking", and was clearly intended to ask you to clarify your posting (which you opted not to do), not to "shut up". Please don't distort others' messages, this is unethical at least.
