Title: true or false "Everything I tell you is a lie,"
Post by Carnie_ville on Apr 24^th, 2008, 5:29pm

If I say "Everything I tell you is a lie," am I telling you the truth or a lie?

Depends, have you ever said anything else and were they all lies? Please answer without lying and don't count that as part of it.

A lie. It can't be the truth without contradicting itself (and therefore being a lie), but some of my statements can be lies, and this is one of those statements. ;D

One of them must be truthful, or it'll contradict itself anyway.
