[Joe (describing the existential fallacy)]: there is an even prime
number = an even prime number exists = an even prime number exists as
a physical object.
[Richard] Where can I find this physical object, called an even prime
number, and by what means can it be sensed, and thus verified?
[Joe]: ask Jud. he is the one who translates ‘is’ into ‘exists’ and then
defines exists so that only matergy exists. the passage you quoted is
a refutation of his theory.
[Jud]: You know damn well that I DO NOT equate *is* into *exists*
[Joe (new)]:
do you admit that ‘I am’ as asserted by Descartes (and by Augustine,
Heidegger, myself and others) does not mean ‘I exist’ as you define
‘exists’?
Joe
