ok, thanks for letting me self correct as I asked.
A sentence doesn't have to include an object, just the subject and predicate.
I am unconvinced about the rules of propositions.
Isn't saying that something exists a non-statement?!
I mean that saying, for example, "my computer exists" is like a double affimative in that the subject and premise of "my computer" already suggests the presence/existence of the computer so the following "exists" becomes pointless!?
The 'self reflexive nature of the statement is a double assertion that the subject of the statement exists so cannot reflect a trully logical statement.
To adjust the statement would render the original statement of "god exists" to just "god" thereby making it grammatically incorrect.
hehe, I have a fkn grouse memory
