Number 2 is a relational property of all pairs. I don't think that a property can exist without that which it is a property of. It is the meaning/nature of property to be a property of something. All pairs exist eternally, just like number 2 and everything else. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
