Quine used Plato’s beard to outline the paradox of discussing objects that lack this property. Objects lacking this property comprise Meinong’s jungle. A quantifier (-5[1])named for this property is symbolized by a backwards E. (10[2])Jean-Paul (10[1])Sartre asserted that this property precedes essence. Ontology (10[1])is the study of this property. (10[1])The teleological and cosmological arguments support the belief that God has this property. For 10 points, name this property of objects that are real, the state of participating in reality. ■END■ (10[1])
