(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 [ https://capturingchristianity.com/two... ] and which Kane B describes here [    • Metaphysics - Ordinary Objects   ].
