the argument that none of us believe

那么说我们没有人相信
meetings ever take place without us would have to work as well.

即使我们不在会议也会举行也是对的
But that's silly.

但那太傻了
It's clear that we all do believe in the possibility,

显然我们实际上都相信
indeed, more than a mere possibility,

不止是一点点可能性
the actuality of meetings that occur without us.

会议没有我们也照开不误
Even though when I imagine that meeting,

即使当我想象那场会议的时候
I'm in some sense,

从某种角度来说
smuggling myself in as an observer.

我还是把自己变回了观察者
From which I think it follows that the mere fact

我认为由此可以推出
that I've smuggled myself in as an observer doesn't mean

我把自己变回观察者这个事实
that I don't really believe in the possibility

并不意味着我不相信
