- Unchanging Continuant (Substance)
- is a separable propensity field. It endures unchanging between two
actual events.
- Changeable Continuant (Substance)
- is a succession of `unchanging continuants' such that its adjacent and
successive stages satisfy that:
-
- 1.
- there is some event over which the two `unchanging continuants',
as propensity fields, are extensively continuous with each other. This
event would then be the product of the earlier continuant and the cause of
the later one.
- 2.
- these two continuants have the same `substantial form' even though
they do not extend over the same sets of places.
