The Philosopher's Gauntlet

tsunpaper
Welcome my fellow philosophers and humans. Before you this day I propose a challenge! We must all discover the mysteries of the universe in order to claim the almighty "Philosopher's Gauntlet!" (The Philosopher's Stone was too expensive so the Gauntlet will have to do...) Now the rules are simple, you must propose an unanswerable question of life and then we must find the answer to it. PLEASE keep it in mind that this is all fun and games, there are no right answers and feel free to be as creative as possible. Also do not hesitate to take anything out of context. I will start this off with an example for the sake of ease of understanding. Socrates once said "True knowledge exists in knowing that you know nothing." How can knowing nothing be true knowledge? And what are the rewards for truly knowing nothing?

Then perhaps that would be mean through looking up into infinity, you yourself can become one with the purest essence of nothing.

^try solving this problem... ●the percentage of numbers which contain '3' from 0-10 is 10% ●the percentage of numbers which contain '3' from 0-100 is 19% (3,13,23,30to39, 43,...93) SO WHAT PERCENTAGE OF NUMBERS DONT CONTAIN '3' IN THE WHOLE NUMBER SYSTEM!! u will find the answer to that problem to be matching with what u just said ^_<

The answer is simple, it is infinite. When you look at the numbers you think to yourself, they can just go on and on... But then you realize... Of course! there is an infinite number of 3s which mean the percent is also infinite. Which can only mean one thing. The infinite purse essence of nothing is also equal to the infiniteness of the number 3. Which can only mean one thing.... The number 3 represents the pure essence of nothingness. Meaning... 3 is nothing therefore... the percent is nothing.

^ 0.o The actual answer is.. percentage of numbers which have 3 is 100% and the percentage of numbers which dont have 3 is 0% Even though we can name(or call) numbers which dont have 3, since there are infinitely large amount of numbers which contain '3'.. our knowledge of numbers which dont contain '3' becomes nothing :p I can post the derivation if anyone is interested :V

How can one Be logically illogical? In my efforts it seems being logical/rationale in some cases seems illogical to people who don’t understand or have the capacity to and where as others thst see it they just see it as another opinion. But I also found if your purposely saying incorrect things or saying vague things as well as subverting a person for the sake of doing it rather than any other reason you can trip up the most logical person or the most rationale person binding them in frustration by being illogical and exasperating their thoughts and tearing them apart especially if they focus on objectivity and like things concrete. Then knowing how people act you do things for the sake of doing them to solicit a response and force them to put there energy in to combating a wall. T] So is this actually being logically illogical for the sake of controlled responses to frustrate people or is it actually logically subverting people by saying purposeless things??? Pffft
