Though Jefferson and Adams both participated in the writing of the Declaration of Independence, it was unfortunate that they had both died 50 years before the day of the Second Continental Congress was approved in July 4, 1776.

In Being and Time, Martin Heidegger attempts to answer the question of what it means “to be” or “to exist”. He argues that, historically, philosophy has failed to answer this question because it erroneously assumes that there is one form of “existing” that is shared universally among all things. From this philosophical framework, to say that chairs exist would be the same as saying that we exist. Heidegger rejects this framework. He argues that if we seek to answer the question of what it means to exist, we have to study the unique entity that has an understanding of what it means to be (i.e. Dasein) and how that entity’s existence differs from that of all other entities.
