Could Rick Ankiel the pitcher throw a pitch so wild that Rick Ankiel the hitter wouldn't swing?

I'm not afraid of anything except being afraid.

@smcmonagle,
The philosophical point is that most "paradoxes" take one of a limited number of structural forms, the most frequent being "Russell's Paradox". The implication of paradoxes is that "logic" is subservient to "semantics" and this has further implications on the role of language in thinking. For example, words may be involved in creating "reality" rather than merely representing it.

Everything I tell you is a lie, including what I'm telling you right now.

If God is really all-powerful then it stands to reason that He could create a truly immoveable object which even He himself couldn't move. But then, of course, He'd no longer be all-powerful, would He?

@smcmonagle,
Lets say you Had a portal with 1 Entrance and 2 exits, you put a candy bar through the entrance portal what comes out the other side, 2 candy bars because there are 2 exits! if you understand Logic and physics youll get the Paradox!
