Logic and truth values
#9
RE: Logic and truth values
A conundrum like what you're proposing is not actually: "This statement is true. This statement is false."

The real brain-bender is: "The following statement is true. The previous statement is false."
Luke: You don't believe in the Force, do you?

Han Solo: Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen *anything* to make me believe that there's one all-powerful Force controlling everything. 'Cause no mystical energy field controls *my* destiny. It's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.
