Paradox was always on time but was also always late so the Principal made him always stay in detention so he had to stay after school while also getting out early.

you'd have to start at the beginning of the middle but there isn't one.

Actually, that's only half of it. If you understand the paradox, you know there both are and arent.

Re: The Principle of Paradox
Just watched the whole video - blah, will probably remember nothing.

The video says, "Paradox cannot be understood. Paradox must be seen." The video is just a series of quotes about duality - i.e., claiming light and dark are actually just poles of the same thing (but no mention of what that thing is); pleasure is actually pain (no explanation offered), etc.

No mathematical equations are presented. Rather, the video elevates the English language & Egyptian imagery & man=god as 'self-evident' solutions to great psychological questions, and the video subtly criticizes Christianity as an obstacle to enlightenment. Ugh. Classic NWO/masonic englightenment [sic] video.

Basically, the video doesn't like the concept of division, but elevates the concept of contrast/opposites as truth. Naturally the video has some interesting quotes (just by the sheer abundance of vague quotes, it gets any thinking mind to keep thinking), but altogether the video is inherently contradictory, non-mathematical, and limited by the English language.

Humorously, the video offers no paradoxes.

Here is an example a real paradox to a human perspective (because the following naturally invites an answer in the universal language of mathematics) -- if there are an infinite amount of points between A and B, then how does one travel from A to B? That's a simple paradox, and an answer can be described for example by waves navigating a probability spectrum (i.e., QED).

Given that light and matter are described probabilistically in physics, here is a complex question about paradox -- the most unlikely thing we humans can postulate is the absence of a first cause. Whereas the most likely thing we can postulate is absolute certainty of our present existence. So imagine these two extremes (likely and unlikely) are poles on an atom, or electricity and magnetism, or select your favorite polar example. Now ask this: What are two mathematical paradoxes about 'nothingness' that could theoretically create a 'charge' between them to compete for relative probability? And what are two paradoxes about 'certainty' that could theoretically create a 'void' as they compete for relative probability?
