Hakuna Matata section19 group 3 Locke and Reid
Today in our discussion we discussed the differing opinions between Locke and Reid about what makes you the same person after time. We determined that Locke beleived that your memories is what distinguishes you as being the same person. You are only the same person as far as you can remember. Past that you are the same man but not the same person. Reid argued this by saying A=B, B=C so A has to equal C. Just because you dont remember does not mean you are not the same person. We all agreed that everypoint in our lives shapes us into who we change into, but just because we may not remember certain things does not mean they still arent a part of us. Our lives are collective from the time we were born.

Our discussion on Locke and Reid really brought up some good points and go me started thinking on how far back I can remember having memories.
