Fun With Logic


This is just a place to post up brain teasers or fun things you do with logic. Please post in the following order: Your logic thing then your username. I'll begin:

Given:
Time is Money
Knowledge is Power
Power is work/time

Then:
Power=work/time

so:
Power=work/money

and:
Knowledge=work/money

so:
Knowledge x money= work

and:
Money= work/knowledge

Therefore: The less you know, the more money you make!
-[Falx]

Girls = Time x Money

BUT Time is money =>

Girls = (Money)2

But Money is the root of all evil =>

Girls = V(Evil)2 =>

Girls = Evil

-[Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]

If I say "I always lie." am I lying?
Because if I do, I'm lying right now. Ergo- I'm always telling the truth. But that means I didn't lie. Ergo- I always lie... ... ...

-[Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]


Given:
Harrison Ford is Han Solo
Harrison Ford is Indiana Jones

Therefore: Indiana Jones is Han Solo

Given: Indiana is the name of George Lucas's dog

Therefore: Han Solo is George Lucas's dog

Given: Chewbaca is George Lucas's dog

Therefore: Han Solo is Chewbaca.

Given: Everyone reverses letters in words at some point in their life and Chewbaca is George Lucas's dog and dog spelled backwards is god...

Then: Chewbaca is god.

Since: Chewbaca is Han Solo and Han Solo is Harrison Ford...

Then: Harrison Ford is also god.

GIven Santa Claus sees every child in the world when they're sleeping, knows when they're awake, and knows if they've been bad or good AND God is omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent...

Then: Santa Claus is god

And Harrison Ford is Chewbaca and since Chewbaca is god, Chewbaca must also therefore be Santa Claus.
-[Falx]

[Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]- I continue the above:

Santa Claus lives on the north pole.

Santa is Chewbaca.

Chewbaca is a big hairy thing, which lives where there's lots of snow.

Chewbaca is Big Foot (Yetti)

Chewbaca is Santa.

Santa is Yetti.

Yetti is Harrison Ford.

Harrison Ford is god.

God is Big Foot.
...
...
...

[Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]- still continuing.

God made humans in his likeness.

We're all Harrison Ford.

We're all Chewbaca.

We're all Lucas's dogs.

I hate dogs.

Therefore, because Chewbaca is a dog and is God, I'm an antichrist.


[Falx] Continuing...

Since
[Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE] hates dogs Chewbaca is a dog and is God and is therefore Harrison Ford, and since we are all Harrison Ford, then [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE] hates everyone, including himself and Santa Claus.

Einstein's Challenge


This puzzle is typically prefaced with a note explaining that it was written by Einstein in the last century (i.e., the 19th century) and that he claimed only 2% of the world's population could solve it. This story is likely apocryphal, and certainly more than 2% of all people could solve it, given enough time. Hopefully this won't detract from your enjoyment of it:

FACTS OF THE PUZZLE
1. There are five houses in five different colours.
2. In each house lives a person of a different nationality.
3. These five owners drink a certain beverage, smoke a certain brand of
cigarette and keep a certain pet.
4. No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of smoke or drink
the same drink.

HINTS
1. The Swede keeps dogs as pets.
2. The Dane drinks tea.
3. The green house is on the left of the white house.
4. The green house owner drinks coffee.
5. The person who smokes Pall Mall raises birds.
6. The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill.
7. The man living in the house right in the center drinks milk.
8. The Norwegian lives in the first house.
9. The man who smokes Blend lives next to the one who keeps cats.
10. The man who keeps horses lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill.
11. The owner who smokes Marlboro drinks beer.
12. The German smokes Prince.
13. The Norwegian lives next to the blue house.
14. The man who smokes Blend has a neighbor who drinks water.
15. The Brit lives in the red house.
The question is: WHO OWNS FISH?



[itoe] - Continuing from [Falx]'s and [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]'s stream of logic.

If Atman is the human soul, the existence of a person, and Brahman is the ultimate reality, the beginningless origin of all things, and given that God is beginningless and the origin of all things, God must be Brahman. Easy enough.
However, since [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE] proved that all humans are God, and since the essence of a human is Atman, therefore, Atman = Brahman. I have proved Hinduism.

Given Sean Connery is human and all humans are God, then Sean Connery is God. Sean Connery played Indiana Jones' father. This by substitution means that Harrison Ford is Jesus. Since Harrison Ford is Chewbacca who is God, Jesus is God. I have just proved Christianity.

Santa Claus lives in a secluded place with a bunch of elves. Elrond lives in secluded place with a bunch of elves. Therefore Santa Claus is Elrond.
Elrond is played by Hugo Weaving. Hugo Weaving also plays Agent Smith in the Matrix films. Therefore Agent Smith is Santa Claus is God.
The symbolism is pretty obvious that Agent Smith is Satan and Neo is Jesus. Therefore Satan is God.
Agent Smith is a computer virus. Computer viruses often go after Microsoft. Therefore, Microsoft is the enemy of Agent Smith and Satan. Therefore, Microsoft must be Jesus. Since Microsoft wasn't born in Bethlehem and crucified 32 years later, Microsoft must be the Second Coming.

Thus, Bill Gates is working to save the world from destruction at the hands of [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE].



Books equal knowledge. Knowledge equals power. Power equals energy. Energy squared equals mass. Therefore, a bookstore is a black hole that knows how to read. (Adapted from Terry Pratchett.)

Or there's another way you could go: Books equal knowlege, knowledge equals power, power equals great responsibility. ERGO, every book can be boiled down to a quote from the first Spider-Man movie. [Tolmeni]



You have a room high up with a light bulb in it.
You have three light switches downstairs and only ONE is for the bulb.
You can't see the light from downstairs.
Now. How do you find which key operates the light if you can only turn on and off two keys and go upstairs one time?
[Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]



(Continueing the God Sequence)

Given: God is perfect
Given: Nobody is Perfect

Therefore, God is nobody. God does not exist. I have just proved Atheism.

We are all God. God doesn't exist. None of us exist. I have proved abstract Nihilism.

Given: Nobody loves me. 

God is nobody, we are all God. Everybody loves me.

I am God, God is everybody, Everybody Loves me, No one loves me. Therefore, no one loves anyone. Love does not exist.

Everyone loves me, Everyone is God, I am God. [Falx] is a narcissist.

[M_Sinner]

(still counting...)
We are all god... We just proved Buddhism.
((That's what the current Lama preaches))
[Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]



[Falx] is a Narcissist. [Falx] is God. God is a Narcissist.

God Loves God. God is Everyone. God Loves Everyone. Stalin is God. Stalin was a Philanthropist.

2005-02-08 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: Hm... It started to get a little bit of confusing here... Fun!

2005-02-08 [Falx]: If we follow the Han Solo logic long enough, we get Chewbaca is God.

2005-02-09 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: ...? How?

2005-02-09 [Falx]: Like I said, I'll have to check with [itoe]. as long as what I have written up there is correct, I should be able to get to Chewbaca is God. *grin* I'll put it up after I talk to him.

2005-02-09 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: OK!

2005-02-10 [Falx]: Um.. I went a little farther than maybe I ought to have...

2005-02-10 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: HAHAHA!!

2005-02-10 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: Um... I also went a bit farther.

2005-02-10 [Falx]: Me too.

2005-02-11 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: Ummm I don't actually hate Santa, but I hate myself and most humans. I'm part of people who hate people and people who hate people even more. LMAO! That's why I wrote all that, sillies. ;)

2005-02-11 [Falx]: See and now we have the mathematical proof to back up your claims! ^_-

2005-02-11 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: Yay!!!

2005-02-11 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: But to be honest... i'm more of a cat person.

2005-02-11 [Falx]: Me too. I love my cat. His name is Thor.

2005-02-12 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: My car used to be called Mickey. I had it long ago and named him after Michelangelo, the Ninja Turtle. LMAO! Though I preffered another one. Alas, Mickey died a few years ago... ::grows sad, misses his cat::

2005-02-12 [Falx]: Aww... I'm sorry *pats you on the head* :(

2005-02-12 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: Thanks.

2005-05-06 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: Nice new riddle. Could be solved in less than an hour. ... If one has an hour... ::runs off, because he's late::

2005-05-06 [Falx]: You better be able to solve it, [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]. The third graders I teach did...^_^

2005-05-09 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: I have given it no thought at all for now... I have these exams, and it's my LAST WEEK of school ever! I graduate high-school in a few days. So I have all the se exams and no time... But... The German?

2005-05-09 [Falx]: Heheh. You say that like I'm going to tell you here. I'll message the answer at your house.

2005-05-11 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: Do! 10X!

2005-05-17 [itoe]: It has been proven. Bill Gates is the emissary of the Second Coming.

2005-05-17 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: WOW!!! BRAVO!!! ::applauds loudly:: I know I'm chaos, but I never thought Bill Gates fights against ME. So... That's why I have all those PC problems... ^_^

2005-05-17 [Falx]: See, and this is why [itoe] is the Ferret of Truth

2005-06-28 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: Yep.

2005-12-08 [M_Sinner]: Well, if the ferret is truth is given on merit of logic use, he most certainly SHOULDN'T have it. Santa Clause is LIKE Elrond. It doesn't prove that he IS Elrond... Eh... maybe I just spent too much time doing flowproofs in Geometry class.

2005-12-08 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: You think TOO darn much.

2005-12-08 [M_Sinner]: Erm... isn't that the decided purpose of this section of the wiki?

2005-12-09 [Falx]: I was being silly with the comment above. The Ferret of Truth is given to people who show ridiculous persistence in the erasure of ignorance either by putting forth facts in an unbiased manner in a wiki or by presenting a logical arguement based on solid facts.

2005-12-09 [itoe]: According to the Identity Property of Fuzzy Logic, if Santa Clause is LIKE Elrond, then Santa Clause IS Elrond. It's just like the identity property of real mathematics and logic, except it works most towards the user's convenience. My proof also follows the Rules of General Absurdity (which I've just made up).

2005-12-09 [M_Sinner]: Lol. Well, then. Everything seems in order.

2005-12-09 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: Yes... Indeed. Santa is god. And Elrond... Elrond is god... Yay?

2005-12-12 [M_Sinner]: How do you like them apples?

2005-12-12 [M_Sinner]: And... at the risk of sounding as stupid as I actually am, When you were talking about the Identity Property of Fuzzy Logic... is that really a theorum?!

2005-12-12 [T_Pop]: lmfao wow lmfao

2005-12-13 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: BTW... How'bout someone finds something else to logic about, k? This string is going WAY too big... Make a new wiki for it or sth and logic sth else, k?

2006-01-07 [Pinkdonkey]: Yay ! I've solved Einstein's Challenge ! I think ... Is there anywhere I can check the answer ?

2006-01-07 [Falx]: Message me

2006-01-09 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: I remember I had solved it...

2006-01-09 [T_Pop]: cool... so i can actualy see if im right with the Einstein Challenge... wow... i hope my 2 hours of work payed off lmfao

2006-01-09 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: I dunno. It took me about... the time toread it, 5 minutes of thought and a few seconds of uncertainty, when I followed only half of my logic and filled the rest with instinct.

2006-01-09 [T_Pop]: ooh... i drew a diagram myself and that itself took me 1 hour and 30-45 min... thats probiboly what took me so long lmfao

2006-01-09 [itoe]: A little late, but the Identity Property of Fuzzy Logic is quite fictional, although it really is in line with the Rules of General Absurdity ^_~

2006-01-10 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: OK. Here's a logistic game. The oldest one I know. If I told you I ALWAYS lie, would you believe me?

2006-01-10 [itoe]: That's the same as askinging "True or False? This statement is false."

2006-01-10 [T_Pop]: hhmmm... i would have to say that i wouldnt beleave you... if your telling the truth then you always lie makeing that a true statement hense your not lieing at the moment makeing the "always" part invalide... but if you where lieing then that means that you tell the truth at times even if this time its a lie... so no i wouldnt beleave you lol

2006-01-10 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: HEHE!!! But if I was telling the truth, then I DO lways lie. So I lied.

2006-01-10 [T_Pop]: which is why i dont beleave you lmfao its a simple consept lmfao

2006-01-10 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: But that means I don't always life, so I'm telling the truth. so I DO always lie.

2006-01-10 [itoe]: Either way you get trapped. If Jino is being truthful, then he always lies. Thus he can't be telling the truth about always lying. Thus he does not always lie (unless perhaps it is on the ground). If Jino is lying, then you get trapped the other way.

2006-01-10 [itoe]: An interesting permutation of this idea is the following: A prisoner was due to be executed. The executioner decided to offer the prisoner a choice. "You get to help choose the way you die. You can make one statement. If you are telling the truth, you'll be hung. If you are lying, you'll be shot." The prisoner made his one statement, and the executioner set him free. What did the prisoner say?

2006-01-10 [T_Pop]: its simple... if you dont always lie then that dosen't mean that you always tell the trueth... that just means you dont always lie... if you lie then your telling the truth makeing it the same situation where you may lie but not all the time... so i chose not to beleave you in either case... that way wether your lieing or not im still right lol

2006-01-10 [Kayne]: I'm going to get shot.

2006-01-10 [T_Pop]: um... o...k... have fun with that lmfao

2006-01-11 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: HEHE! I'd make that statement, actually... And go get hung. Or shot.  Anywho, whatever you think about my "riddle", you get trapped, because the opposite is also correct.

2006-01-11 [T_Pop]: well... you cant apreatiate life with out death... and you cant have death with out life lmfao

2006-01-11 [Jino "ChaoS" Silver_flamE]: True... "Life is a decease that spreads through sex and always leads to death." ((I hate translating from Bulgarian... NEver get it right))

2006-01-11 [T_Pop]: um... sure... if you way so lmfao

2007-01-14 [xido]: I don't even have to work on this here. So much talk of God already, I'm sure the logic of this phrase will neither shock not abhor:

I-Am-An-Antichrist

Best wishes, and nice game. I like it. I will be stealing Einstein's game for Will's Fave Quotes I think... ;D
