if we can’t define ‘exists’ to mean ‘exists as a physical object’; then,
it seems to me, we can’t define ‘is’ or ‘am’ to mean ‘is a physical
object’ or ‘exists as a physical object’. the true statement ‘there is
an even prime number’ would ‘prove’ something we know to be false.
The even prime number is “zero” and without which it would be impossible to
pass “one” and realize “two” and the generation of numbers. “One” would
represent the “I” or ego. The ego/one would not exist if its complement were not
“zero” and which is the Aristotelian prima materia. This would posit “zero” as
the state of potentia and pre-dispostion to form. Its ens would be form in
appearance and without which the “I” would remain deaf, dumb and blind and in
equivalence to a state of unconsciousness. That is all that Heidegger is trying to
say whith his dasein except he is 2500 years too late.
