The Ship of Theseus
I was just reading about the Ship of Theseus paradox, which questions if an object is still the same object after all its part have been replaced, and realized that I found the whole question completely silly and its premises off-base because of the explanations I've read in the Book On the Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are. I've written about this before. They could also add your own body as another example of the so-called "paradox".
I really recommend everyone reading this book. It also explains the meaning of life. Which is nice.
