"if the universe is that which has no double, since nothing exists outside of it, then the simple attempt to bring into existence a point outside of it signifies the attempt, or desire to put an end to the world - in any case to make it somehow pass through the mirror stage, just like any human being, and therefore to definitely scramble its identity".
I have several problems with this
1) the assertion of the that "nothing exists outside of it". Wait a sec ... that's some mighty leap ...
2) how does wanting to create a point outside the universe imply a desire to put an end to the world. Maybe Jean is speaking for Jean ... I wouldn't go generalizing here.
3) attributing a desire to pass through the mirror as a human universal desire ... I never wanted to pass through the mirror. I thought it might be interesting ... but I don't see a mirror and think ... "Hey, I really want to pass through this mirror", In fact, I can't recall anytime thinking this. I can conceive that I might have thought about this ... but ...it doesn't ring a bell.
4) and what's this thing about wanting to scramble the universe ... I might want to scramble some eggs in order to cook them .... but wanting to scramble the universe ... maybe Jean consulted for a Jigsaw puzzle company ...
Maybe the parker is all wet about this.
