7. Existence / A. Nature of Existence / 6. Criterion for Existence

20860	Whatever participates in substance exists [Zeno of Citium, by Stobaeus]
	Full Idea: Zeno says that whatever participates in substance exists.
	From: report of Zeno (Citium) (fragments/reports [c.294 BCE]) by John Stobaeus - Anthology 2.05a
	A reaction: This seems Aristotelian, implying that only objects exist. Unformed stuff would not normally qualify as a 'substance'. So does mud exist? See the ideas of Henry Laycock.
