It's like saying "something exists". Yes, if you define "exist" as encompassing every state of everything, then obviously, something exists. | |
| Jan 14 at 6:35 | comment | added | Double Knot | Your weak point may lie in 'some way', existence is only a logical quantifier normally speaking, otherwise you can simple claim 'something exists' with absolute confidence or 'I am' like Descartes. When anyone doubts following your reasoning, maybe doubt can be conceived as a linguistic word, but certainly it's something more so. Even if you're only willing to stay purely syntactic here you still cannot avoid semantic judgement though... | |
