  • One paradox per answer but the sentence of the answer could be the same paradox as another but with a different way to display it.

Will resolve YES on the option (and not between the options which display the same paradox) with the most votes on a poll (from January 2nd to January 14th 2024) I'll run after market closes. The poll will have the options of the market which is a paradox.

According to Wikipedia, a paradox is a logically self-contradictory statement or a statement that runs contrary to one's expectation.

β€œFirst incompleteness theorem
Any consistent formal system F within which a certain amount of elementary arithmetic can be carried out is incomplete; i.e., there are statements of the language of F which can neither be proved nor disproved in F.

Second incompleteness theorem
For any consistent system F within which a certain amount of elementary arithmetic can be carried out, the consistency of F cannot be proved in F itself.”
