Imagine an alien landed in your room and the first thing it (he/she?) told you"All aliens lie" Now, not only is it a weird thing too say, but what does it mean?
Let´s say that the alien lie, that would mean that the fact that aliens lie is a lie and that aliens speak the truth. However, if that is the case the alien lied in order too say that it speaks the truth. So that must mean that they all lie right!? But if everything they say is a lie then they must speak the truth, right? But no, that statement is only true if it actually lied!? So it must have been a lie that they lie, so they speak the truth? But that is only true if they did lie!?
Well I really, really don't know about this one? What do you think?
