Where: Surf Coffee® X Tumanyan, Nalbandyan Street, 98

Organizer: Philosophy Club

What makes you you? Is it your body, your memories, your personality, or something else entirely? If every part of something is gradually replaced, does it remain the same thing? We’ll begin with the famous Ship of Theseus thought experiment and use it as a starting point to explore one of philosophy’s oldest and deepest questions - the nature of identity. Together, we’ll discuss what it means in for something to remain the same over time, whether identity depends on physical parts, continuity, consciousness, or something else entirely. No background in philosophy is needed - just curiosity and an open mind.
