(4) The physicalist view of personal identity that Dustin defended in the discussion is based on chapter 1 of Jeff McMahan's "The Ethics of Killing". Dustin doesn't actually hold the view because he's a mereological nihilist, which he defends here [ capturingchristianity.com/two-more-arguments-for-substance-dualism ] and which Kane B describes here [ youtube.com/watch?v=07PZ1a-gZxw ].
