In particular, Chatton calls into question Ockham’s missed distinction between the existence and the presence of the intuited thing. Ockham’s arguments include some difficulties that Chatton acutely sees and discusses. Instead, he believes that it is impossible for God to give us the intuition of things that absolutely do not exist or are in no way present to us. ![]() ![]() Walter Chatton opposes this conclusion, arguing that no contradiction ensues from that hypothesis. ) God to give us the evident cognition of things that appear to be present when they are actually absent. For theological reasons, Ockham attributes not only to God but also to human beings the possibility of having acts of intuitive cognition of things that do not exist nonetheless, he holds that it is contradictory for (. The purpose is to show that the hypothetical case considered by Ockham was subjected to opposite interpretations. In this essay, we reconsider two themes particularly discussed by the interpreters of Ockham: that of divine omnipotence and the hypothesis of the intuitive cognition of non-existent things. A dangerous change, as this paper claims, if not speedily reconstructed and re-conceptualized, could lead to a disastrous situation in the socio-political reality of the Nigerian State. To this end, it posits a critique on the dangerous change in the signification of the term “Fulani”, in the conceptualization and perception of present day Nigeria people, of West Africa. ) This work claims that as a result of the connection between logic and ontology, conceptualization and perception, names and reality, the distortion of terms, which are the building blocks of propositions in logic could lead to a dangerous cognition and perception of ontological realities. It thus, employs this notion of signification of terms, to discuss the term “Fulani”, to show the danger potent in distorting the signification of the term “Fulani” as in every conventional and connotative terms. It expounds the notion of signification in Formal Logic as exposed by William of Ockham. This paper attempts to demonstrate that the logical problematic of signification, has a very dangerous socio-political effect due to the ontological implication that is connected to the signification of terms in logic. ![]()
