It may not be amiss, before we leave this subject, to explain the ideas of existence and of external existence; which have their difficulties, as well as the ideas of space and time.

 Now coexistence is the existence of the manifold in the same time. No one can once doubt but existence and non-existence destroy each other, and are perfectly incompatible and contrary. These decision makers job is to be impersonal and unbiased in all areas except for the company's best interests. In other words: TO THEM, YOU REALLY DON'T MATTER. Both philosophers and the vulgar suppose the first of these to have a distinct continued existence. 

Hence we are entitled to apply the term substance to a phenomenon, only because we suppose its existence in all time, a notion which the word permanence does not fully express, as it seems rather to be referable to future time.

 [*Footnote; We can easily conceive the non-existence of matter; but the ancients did not thence infer its contingency.
