 The remaining sections of the Metaphysical Disputations are centrally and recognizably discussions of kinds of being: infinite being, that is, God; finite being, what is created by God; and then the nature and features of finite beings, again as delineated by a theory of categories: substance and accident, and then all of the kinds of accident there may be. We will restrict ourselves mainly to (3), the causes of being, since doing so provides a clear picture of the character of Suarez's inquiry in the Metaphysical Disputations.
