Onward from Properties...
Philosophy | Epistemology | Ontology | Phenomenology | ExplanationSubmitted by aaron on Fri, 2006/08/18 - 2:23pm.
States are possible manifestations of Properties.
As a class, States serve to catalogue the initial existential implications of possessing a property.
So any given State is the accepted result of actually having a property.
Conditions are actual manifestations of Properties.
As a class, Conditions serve to delimit the actual existential results of possesing a property.
So a given Condition is the immediate result of actually having a property.
Conditions are particular temporal instances of States.
Having a condition means being in a State at a given time, or for a given duration.
All Conditions are States whose existential state has changed from possible to actual.
