This sentence is false.
A:
I would say quite naively that 'this', being a deictic, refers actually to a sentence - in the best of cases - in a given context and for a given people. So, I would say that, once extracted from the spoken chain and from the hic et nunc in which it is stated, this sentence cannot be evaluated as true or false. The same applies, as I see it, if 'this' is centripetal, targets the sentence itself.
Q:
Does non-being is and, if so, in what sense, where does it come from? In other words, how to interpret things such as the possible, the death, the absence of a person or even a form (Gestalt) vs its background etc.?
