I don't believe God exists. I don't believe miracles exist. I don't believe magic exists.
How is this not a contradiction?
Because I don't believe God, miracles or magic are things. That's why they don't exist.
Everything exists because there's no such thing as a non-existent thing. Because to exist, is to be something, is to be a thing.
Existence is a state of being, and therefore a thing.
So what you are basically saying is that every thing is a thing.
