“I would ask that you realize that all general statements are fictitious. They presume a world and instances of things, beings, qualities and circumstances that simply do not exist. I hope you will deeply consider this matter.

What is initially perplexing about this, is that this is a general statement. What is essential about it is that it is this kind of statement, a specific instance of intrinsic conflict which is both messianic and ‘heroically self-obliterating’.

It is messianic in that it has the capacity to entirely end all such fictions of thought and language; it is ‘heroically’ self-obliterating because it sacrifices itself to end all fictions like itself.

Similarly: “No statement shall promote itself to the order of those who interpret statements.” This answers the Liar Paradox by obliterating the paradox, and itself with the paradox, since it also conflicts with itself by doing what it prohibits ‘one final time’.

General statements refer to a universe that does not and cannot exist; they are figments of language, and when this is not understood, we can neither understand nor reasonably negotiate the the associated threats they comprise to our intelligence and thought. This does not mean they have no value or cannot be reasonably asserted — rather, it means that we must be aware of this property intrinsic to them.

Mortality is essential to human beings since there are no human beings that do not die. Blackness, however, is not essential to crows.

In point of fact, however, there are no human beings that are generally human, since all actual human beings are specifically human; similarly, there is no such thing as ‘a’ crow. Slightly more honestly, there is ‘that crow, there’ or, perhaps ‘the crow I see now or refer to in the specific’.”
