    The Barber in Rivervale shaves everyone in the town who does not shave himself.

    Who shaves the barber?

    The assumption is that the barber is shaved at all. If this assumption is false, then the answer is no one.

    Well yeah, if he doesn't shave then of course the answer is noone (but who would ask that question then? ).

    If however we assume that he does shave, the fact given (that he shaves _EVERYONE_ that doesn't shave themselves), means that noone else could shave him if he didn't shave himself. Logic then brings us to the conclusion that he must shave himself.

    Except, Rhedd, if he only shaves those who do not shave themselves then he can't shave himself. He would be excluded from the set of things that do not shave themselves. Right?

    Obviously the barber is female and has no facial hair to shave.

    (Rest of you sick tards can leave other shavings out of this!)

    Yeah what Siren said. The barber doesn't shave, so is either female or wears a beard.

    par·a·dox n.
    A seemingly contradictory statement that may nonetheless be true.

    Just because it's a paradox doesn't mean that there is no truth condition.

    I.E. the set of conditions that make this statement true are that the barber is female OR that the barber wears a beard or has no facial hair.

    In the bible it says god can do anything. Can god make a rock so big that he himself can not move?

    This is definitely a paradox though. If you stick with the premise of it (no, saying the barber is a woman is a sneaky way to use language to defeat it!) then it's self contradictory. Which is generaly what a paradox is, though derived from plausible principles

    Of course God can make a rock that God can't lift. And he can lift it. And he can't.

    Being outside of time and space has wonderous advantages, one of which is being immune to Paradox.

    But the barber paradox is...weak..;-)
