Personal identity = thinking (I'm leaning towards this being the brain but it really doesn't matter to my point about dualistic views of the self being just thinking thing being sterile) + other parts of the body and behavior. Self = the vague whole.
It is very important not to mistake hemlock for parsley, but to believe or not believe in God is not important at all. - Denis Diderot

We are the United States of Amnesia, we learn nothing because we remember nothing. - Gore Vidal
