Abstract

Monism about being says that there is one way to be. Pluralism about being says that there are many ways to be. Recently, Trenton Merricks and David Builes have offered arguments against Pluralism. In this paper, I show how Pluralists who appeal to the relative naturalness of quantifiers can respond to these arguments.

思考存在方式的方式

摘要

关于存在的一元论说，存在一种方法。关于存在的多元化表示存在多种方式。最近，特伦顿·梅里克斯（Trenton Merricks）和大卫·比尔斯（David Builes）提出了反对多元主义的论点。在本文中，我展示了诉诸于量词相对自然性的多元论者如何回应这些论点。
