 The most obvious line of response (if we wish to avoid rejecting too many plausible premises) is to deny some aspect of the neo-Russellian view of propositions. Here we see at least two sorts of reply: some suggest a modification of the view (e.g., Ingram 2019: 85–104), others suggest a total rejection of it (e.g., Merricks 2012, 2015: 157–90). If we take the way of modification, we can accept that propositions are structured entities with constituents, but urge that the propositional constituents are presently existing entities, and not any non-existent past entities. If we take the way of rejection, we can deny that propositions are structured entities and, instead, suggest a distinct treatment of propositions.
