i would like to see what kinda paradox people could come up with, ill post one i thought was a good question, and has stumped every "holyman" i have ever asked.

If god is all powerful, can he/she create hot sauce that is so hot that he/she can not eat it hisself/herself?

Of course, there is the easy one about killing your past self:

Suppose you go into the past and kill yourself. Then, you would never have grown up to go to the past to kill yourself. But then you'd be alive, since you couldn't have killed yourself. But since you're alive, now you can go back and end your own life. Voila, paradox.

You have to declare a specific number of times for the loop to occur, then it terminates; if you refuse to do so, you lose.

By being a male and eating it himself? Typo ftw!


This sentence is a lie.
