Why can't constructivists construct a largest prime number?

>>	Anonymous Wed Oct 28 02:43:08 2015 No.7620736 >>7620361 Due to the manner in which we created the prime number, the sentence "largest prime number" constitutes an insidiously subtle contradiction meant only to confuse the ignorant, like those equations which divide by zero to prove 1 = 2.

>>	Anonymous Wed Oct 28 02:48:22 2015 No.7620745 >>7620742 I just looked up constructionism on wikipedia, I have no stake in this debate. It's just that the same rules from which prime numbers follow prove that there cannot be a largest prime number.
