Question

Answer 1

can't say, I was never with him when he was alone.

Answer 2

ha ha...sounds like someone need help with their Philopsohy homework. Here, this is the basic underlying theme as to that belief:
"we are never intimately conscious of anything but a particular perception; man is a bundle or collection of different peceptions which succeed one another with an inconceivable rapidity and are in perpetual flux and movement". ~ David Hume

Get it? The self is never static, and is always changing. You are not the same person you are now that you were 5 years ago....

Answer 3

I never heard of humes,i do believe there is only "GOD",in the end we lose the sense of "self" merging back into that whence we came.

Answer 4

"you" are nothing more than a compilation of all that was before you (genes) ... all that was put into you (knowledge) ... and all that is derived from you (experience and perception).

being a zenith of so many "parts", how can "self" exist as a single self?

how can "you" be you?

Answer 5

We are an ever changing self -so who are you now? Who were you before today?

Answer 6

I guess he simply doesn't know the difference between "I" and "Self". So forget about it.
