River of Theseus by Kavaeric

River of Theseus

Kavaeric

This solution [No Identity Over Time] was first introduced by the Greek philosopher Heraclitus who attempted to solve the paradox by introducing the idea of a river where water replenishes it. Arius Didymus quoted him as saying, "upon those who step into the same rivers, different and again different waters flow". Plutarch disputed Heraclitus' claim about stepping twice into the same river, citing that it cannot be done because "it scatters and again comes together, and approaches and recedes".

    I changed my idea about this when I learned biologically, the cells in the human body are replaced in about 7 years.
    Unmodded humans are already Ships of Theseus.
    And always have been.
