Join George and John as they discuss and debate different Philosophical ideas, today they will be looking into the Ship of Theseus.
This is a very interesting thought experiment pondering upon the metaphysics of identity. What gives an object its identity? Consider the Ship of Theseus, a famous ship that has been on display in a museum for thousands of years, over time the ship has needed maintenance, repair and refurbishment. However after two thousand years in the museum we find that today all the original parts have been replaced with newer parts.
So is this still the same ship or a different ship altogether?
Watch the debate and discover the paradox.
