Lobster Argument

“At home alone one night, I decided to have lobster for dinner. So I set aplace, opened the door to the street, and waited for a lobster to show upand crawl onto my plate. Hours passed.

At 11pm I ended the experiment. No lobster had appeared. So, I concluded, there are no lobsters on Earth.

Since we know that lobsters do exist, clearly there was something wrongwith my reasoning. The error was, of course, that I'd failed to take thelobster's preferences into account.

They don't want to come to my house. But the fact that they don't show up doesn't mean they don't exist.”
