Sep 3, 2013 at 13:24 comment added Eric Wofsey Incidentally, by this answer, my example does not require the axiom of choice (such a set $S$ can be exhibited explicitly). @dimo: Any element of $\ker(\varphi)$ has finite support, and every multiple of it must have smaller support.

Sep 2, 2013 at 10:48 comment added dimo Nice, and how do you show that $ker(\phi)$ is not finitely generated ?

Aug 25, 2013 at 3:03 comment added Eric Wofsey Oh, yes, I was implicitly assuming everything was commutative, perhaps because you tagged the question "commutative rings".
Aug 24, 2013 at 19:00 comment added user38138 I think you need to use commutativity assumption to conclude that $i$ is an idempotent generator of $I$.
