The barber’s Paradox
|
Suppose there is a town with just one male barber; and that every man in the town keeps himself clean-shaven: some by shaving themselves, some by attending the barber. It seems reasonable to imagine that the barber obeys the following rule: He shaves all and only those men in town who do not shave themselves.
Under this scenario, we can ask the following question: Does the barber shave himself?

One special advantage of the skeptical attitude of mind is that a man is never vexed to find that after all he has been in the wrong.
