Can you work out the answer to this sentence?
Is the sentence "This statement is false" true or false?
Please give reasoning with your answer...

Danny B Posted Aug 9, 2002
It can't be worked out.
If it's 'true', then it's false, and can't be true.
If it's 'false', then it's true, and can't be false.

Yes.
It must be be either one or the other (true/false) it all depends on the context.
