I don't think there's a coherent deductive argument that can be made to prove this assertion false. Of course, it is far from clear what exactly is meant by being or non-being, but I wager that for any ontologically interesting definition of these terms, there is no way to show the statement to be fallacious.

Alex, you're back!!  It's been a long time!!!  As for your OP, why not just posit the Quantum Eternity Theorem:

The same proof, as far as I can tell, is in Griffiths, also.
