8. Modes of Existence / A. Relations / 1. Nature of Relations

22606	Neo-Humeans say there are no substantial connections between anything [Ingthorsson]
	Full Idea: Neo-Humean metaphysics holds the view that there are no substantial connections between anything in this world.
	From: R.D. Ingthorsson (A Powerful Particulars View of Causation [2021], 1)
	A reaction: A very illuminating comment. This exactly fits Lewis's great 'mosaic' of facts. The challenge is to say what 'substantial' relations there might be, but I'm quite happy to have a go at that.
