Metaphysics The Problem of Universals The Ontological problem has occupied many philosophers and intellectuals since the very beginning of human thought. What seems to be a simple and rather ridiculous question to the average person‚ ‘what exists?’ or ‘what is there?’ serves as the general question for the ontological problem.
