RE: Does a "True Self" Exist?

Quote:Of course not, what you quoted was in answer to the claim that a clone would be identical to the original self. They are the same the instant the clone is created, but as soon as the clone starts accessing its mind states there is necessarily another self.

Well...
Why is it that a second of new memories forever alters the fundamental being of the clone, while a second of new memories leaves the original the same person it was second ago?
