7. Existence / A. Nature of Existence / 2. Types of Existence
The idea that 'exist' has multiple senses is not coherent [Wright,C]
     Full Idea: I have the gravest doubts whether any coherent account could be given of any multiplicity of senses of 'exist'.
     From: Crispin Wright (Frege's Concept of Numbers as Objects [1983], 2.x)
     A reaction: I thoroughly agree with this thought. Do water and wind exist in different senses of 'exist'?
