I'm in troubled need support
... The resulting sentences must have truth-conditions that include the truth-conditions of (1). ''Since (1) itself is always available as a sort of degenerate answer, the mutual entailment is assured.''
I couldn't digest the meaning behind the parts of covered with a quotation mark. ''Since (1) itself is always available as a sort of degenerate answer, the mutual entailment is assured.''
What is the statement is trying to say? Degenerate by its dictionary definition means shoddy, immoral, perverted. But it doesn't fit in the context on here. ''The mutual entailment is assured'' is also another part which I couldn't understand. Please help me out. Generalize this sentence for me to understand. What can we summarize this in a comprehensible way?
