Every necessary being, except for some versions of god, are abstractions. That's sort of the notable thing about necessary beings and god. It's the sole exception, (as usual) and only if you believe in it as something -other- than abstraction.
Is there anything else I can clear up for you, Chad?
Quote:There are various entities which, if they exist, would be candidates for necessary beings: God, propositions, relations, properties, states of affairs, possible worlds, and numbers, among others. Note that the first entity in this list is a concrete entity, while the rest are abstract entities.[2]http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/god-necessary-being/
