Because, by the definition, "a substance" is that which is "self-existent." In other words, a self-existent substance cannot be created, a truism which scarcely required the apparatus of a geometrical proof by means of propositions, scholia, and corollaries, or, as Professor Saisset says, with laconic naïveté, "ce qui a
