= Ship of Theseus
{wiki=Ship_of_Theseus}
The Ship of Theseus is a philosophical thought experiment that raises questions about identity, change, and continuity. The scenario posits that if a ship has all its wooden parts replaced one by one, is it still the same ship? Furthermore, if all the original parts were collected and reassembled into a ship, which of the two would be considered the "true" Ship of Theseus? This thought experiment explores themes of identity and the nature of objects over time.
