Default Paradox
Here are 2 paradoxes.

1. "If you went back in time and killed your grandfather, would you be alive?"

2. Is the following Sentence True or False:
This sentence is false.



See if you can come up with any answers. I actually know the answer to number 2.

is the sentence "This sentence is false" True or False? That is what question 2 means.

1. This is called the Grandfather Paradox. It was first brought up by a science fiction writer named René Barjavel in his 1943 book "Le Voyageur Imprudent" I think it can be argued either way, but it cannot be proved true or false.

2. I think this one is False.

Number 1 can be argued either way. I will say the answer to number 2 after more people have thought of a answer.

What's the only question you can't answer "yes" to?

Are you asleep? *laugh!*

No - that one doesn't work, Folie! You forgot about ZOMBIES! (as in the mysteriously elusive Lost Zombie Season!) LOL!
