		A paradox is an apparently true statement or group of statements that seems to lead to a contradiction or to a situation that defies intuition, such as "This statement is false".
		Paradoxes which are not based on a hidden error generally happen at the fringes of context or language, and require extending the context (or language) to lose their paradox quality.
		Supplee's paradox: the buoyancy of a relativistic object (such as a bullet) appears to change when the reference frame is changed from one in which the bullet is at rest to one in which the fluid is at rest

		It also said that the paradox is a âchild of polarity, a linguistic construct by which we give expression to our polarized human existenceâ.
		A physical example of the linguistic paradox at work would be the opposing poles of electricity, each also having equal claim to validity, schizophrenically engaging in the creation of energy.

	Pharisees - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Many Jews lived in the Diaspora, and the Judean provinces of Judea, Samaria, and the Galilee were populated by many Gentiles (who often showed an interest in Judaism).
		Under such conditions, Jews had to confront a paradox in their own tradition: their God was the God of all, but their covenant with God — the commandments and laws through which this covenant took material and practical form — applied only to them.
		This tension between the universal and the particular in Judaism led to new interpretations, some of which were influenced by Hellenic thought and in response to Gentile interest in Judaism.

		It is remarkable how many of the Manhattan team found it so easy to free themselves of any guilt the creation of nuclear weapons may possibly have placed upon their shoulders, and how forgiving the gurus of peace and love have been of these men.
		Like the bomb, the multi-racial society is characterized by a paradoxical complementarity: it fragments a homogeneous community while imposing a "chilling and impersonal", even fearful structure upon the new socialist union.

	The Scope of Atheism
		They may be hypocritical theists, they may profess to be Christians while ignoring Christian morality -- but if these men actually believe in god "in their brains" (meaning: as an intellectual issue), then they are theists, regardless of their conduct or moral beliefs.
		As to how one can become an atheist through one's actions, Maritain provides a simple answer if one is sufficiently immoral or hypocritical, one deserves to be called an atheist.
		To be an atheist is suddenly to be less than a human being -- to be an enigma, a walking paradox, a psychological problem.
