He says it is 'unintelligible', which is hardly crystal-clear but indicates to my mind that the question would be quizzical and pointless, like asking if a square is a rectangle. If X = Y, there would be the same unintelligibility but there isn't, so X ≠ Y. For the reasons I gave, I think this is a poor argument ontologically and epistemologically. I agree with you that epistemology, lack of knowledge, does not settle the question of identity and your examples bring this out well. Best - Geoff. | |
