ANNOTATION: Epimenides paradox: to become moot? (correction)
The Epimenides, or Liar paradox (“I’m lying”) automatically has
a resolution as time progresses. The only beings which will
persist are those with intelligence and good morality and ethics
who cooperate towards solutions for survival. For such beings
it would be inconceivable to lie, much less make the
statement, “I am lying”.
****************************************
Mute? Moot? Am I confused? In any case, this is the
correction. I notice the original mistakes are never deleted in
this forum. OK, I guess, one might as well keep one's warts and
blemishes out there for everyone to see forever. Until we run
out of memory. Both brain and computer.
