What if Socrates was necessarily a thinking being but only contingently a human rather than a sponge, a hippopotamus, or a rat?
So he was essentially a thinking thing but only accidentally a human?
So he was substantially a thinking thing?
So Descartes and Plato were right?
He was essentially a res cogitans but only accidentally a human - isn't that something substance dualism entails?
