Abstract

The article shows the groundlessness of a simplified understanding of the significance of K. Gödel's Second Incompleteness Theorem as missing its conceptual contents. The relationship between the extensional and intensional contents of constructing the G2 sentence is revealed. It is shown that the second one is associated with the choice of a method for formalizing the concept of consistency. The advantages of the intensional interpretation of G2 are substantiated.
