1 the quality of being the same as or very similar to something:
This second objection is similar to the first objection in that it associates equality with a kind of precision or sameness.
Philosophy distinguishes qualitative sameness, where two objects exhibit the same properties but are different, and numerical sameness, when the objects are actually the same object.
At a time when both need sameness, closeness, and connection with one another, they are different, distanced, and detached.
The flautists thus defined and redefined the overlapping structures of sameness and selfhood in terms of occurrence, altered spatialities and control.
So, sameness of (quasi-) memories, software, or information-bearing pattern cannot suffice for sameness of person.
What is needed is a criterion for sameness of first-person perspective over time.
The sameness thesis is very difficult to defend from a normative point of view.
The task was designed to measure the ability to compare a difference in the object with sameness of word.
