Apophatic prayer and meditation attempts to identify God by focusing on what he is not.  But what does it really mean for something to not be what other things are?

They’re both still referential in the context of stuff existing. Without the existence of things, how can we make a distinction between something existing or not existing, or 2 amount of things versus 0 amount of things?

I’ve been drinking, bear with me. 😂
