Just admit already that you don't care about the truth of reality. Why do you even larp as thinking being? Go construct instead of plan.

>>existence precedes essence
That never made any sense, no wonder it was used by meme existentialists. They either appear at the same time or essence precedes existence. There can't be any existence with no essence unless you define essence to mean something else.

Essence precedes existance if we tallk ontology
Existance precedes essence if we tallk individualisation
Existance is essence if you drop anthropocentric wordview.

>God *is* something entirely different from that which I recognize as existence
Maximus fails to see that in order to make his sentence intelligible he's been forced to use the "is" in its ordinary sense (if it meant something different than what we understand by existence, the sentence would be unintelligible)

[Anonymous No.22139371]

Maximus never said the word “is” in his life.

Diffused presence facilitates suffusion of essence, thus, potentiating refusion of conscience.

Existence, broadly defined for Sartre, concerns his interpretation of Da-Sein. “Existence precedes essence”, means, when considering the totality of a human being and their experience as Da-Sein, the nature of their existence is regarded prior to any ability to classify them with a determinate essence (“smart”, “stupid”, “a waiter”, “citizen”). It’s not a statement about essences in general, but rather the epistemological order of Da-Sein’s confrontation with the world.

Temporally (with respect to the order of human knowledge) it's at the very least moot, as per this anon (ftmp):
>>22141450
Logically, however, no:
Existence *means* 'out of essence' and therefore essence is logically prior, or else there's no essence to come out of (or to be thrown out of!)
Consider the word Exit-- is 'going out' prior to 'going' in general?
