difference between paradox and contradiction?????
Answers
Paradox:-
A counterintuitive conclusion or outcome.
Ex:- ""Not having a fashion is a fashion; that's a paradox."
Contradiction:-
A statement that contradicts itself, i.e., a statement that makes a claim that the same thing is true and that it is false at the same time and in the same senses of the terms.
Ex:- "There is a contradiction in Clarence Page's statement that a woman should have the right to choose and decide for herself whether to have an abortion, and at the same time she should not have that right."
"There is a contradiction in what you say: she can't be both married and single."
Explanation:
A contradiction is something that cannot be true, because it refutes its premises. In the strictest sense, a paradox is something that can be neither be true nor false, because refuting the premises provides an equally false set of premises.
