Robert Kilwardby distinguished the per se and per accidens forms of this property to explain why conversion rules don’t allow one to ascribe this property to a literate being. A theorem from Gödel’s ontological argument implies that uncomfortably many things have this property in a certain form of “collapse.” John Duns Scotus’s account of free will rejects the traditional view that the present has this property. Since (*) past truths have this property, Diodorus Cronus’s master argument holds that this property is identical to possibility. Ockham held that God was the only being with this property, so his existence can be assumed even though “entities ought not be multiplied beyond” this property. For 10 points, contingency is contrasted with what property of statements that could not have been false? ■END■
