P2(Provides the truth conditions for proposition (7), identified as proposition (7): George Bush does not exist.)
The principle that proposition (7) is true if and only if George Bush does not exist — a modalized instance of the Tarski truth-schema 's is true iff s'.
PAP(Frankfurt's argument targets this principle)
The Principle of Alternate Possibilities, the principle that moral responsibility requires the ability to do otherwise
Rationality gap(philosophy of logic and argumentation)
A logical problem or inconsistency that appears in an argument—in this case, something about the reasoning doesn't quite add up or connect properly.
