My concern was the nature of infinity relative to the nature of theology.
Is it possible you mis-undeerstood my intended meaning?

Saying reality is all does not mean everything is real. A unicorn is real
only because of the role he or she plays in reality. Reality has no borders
-- it is everything. Without an everything to designate with a word we are
prey to binary or dualistic thinking which might be fine for some things

Right, that ambiguity surfaces in the two sentences that I initially

Peirce's comments about the phoenix do indeed seem relevant to the unicorn

Everything is real including unreality, fiction, laundry bags, ideas,
muses, thoughts, coughs. There is nothing that is not real. At some point
maybe I will go through Peirce and see if I can find the premises that back
this up. Of course I will find his binary use of the term but I cannot
