“There are two errors to avoid here. One is to assume that each individual as such is self-contained and is provided with a hard shell casing . . . The other error is to think that the self is nothing more than a ganglion of relationships, with no ‘hard atoms’ of individuals between whom such relationships are possible. As a moment of reflection should show, you can’t have a chemical reaction without the chemicals. You can’t have an electrical current without the poles” (Against the Church, p. 119).
