in thread A philosophical proof that, a perl6 implementation can be written only by Larry Wall

You got it correctly, and thats my point. The whole thing about only Larry Wall having the power to do such a job stems from the fact there exists one and only one binary written by Larry Wall which can parse perl.

All other attempts(if they have been ever made?, I don't know) have failed to produce a program that match the existing perl binary.

If all that is true and then only Larry Wall can write a Perl 6 implementation.
