<...but it seems to me that the concept of existence has the necessary implication of the concept of nonexistence.>

It's true about concepts, which are mind-events, that if the mind can conceive plusness of anything, it can conceive minusness of it, too.

That's not the same as the statement, "If the matter of which the universe consists exists, then it also doesn't exist or didn't exist."

I think that's what Lather Rinse Repeat was saying, too.
