But in that case it becomes a literary fallacy, as you no longer killed you own father, you killed another person.
Since your father is still alive in your universe. So, surely, it's not possible to kill your own actual father who is going to concieve you.
No, you did indeed kill your father. It was just that the second you went back in time, it created a new universe. So you killed an alternate father.

Maybe we should define Paradox and Literary Fallacy.

But can he really be an alternate father if he was never to be a father at all?
Prior to your muder of him, he's just an alternate version of the man who is your father, not actually an alternate father. Atleast, that's how I'm seeing it.
If you kill a guy who was going to be your father, he never was going to be your father even if he's from an alternate parallel universe, surely?

But anyway, someone should bring up another paradox/impossible situation.

Oh, I see. Because you killed him, he never became your father. That's an interesting way of thinking about it.

Now I need to find a way to go back in time and kill my cat.

But if you killed your cat before you made this post, you would never have thought to go back in time and kill your cat.



This is more of a joke paradox.

That's not a paradox.

It's still funny. And I think this was the original:

Maybe we should define Paradox and Literary Fallacy.
A paradox is a>b>a, simply. Something that travels on forever, whether it be mathimatical or presenting a hypothetical situation, such as the pencil one. A literacy fallacy is just stating something that is untrue , as opposed to presenting a hypothetical situation or question, such as saying "This sentence is a lie" or the one with Pinocchio stating "My nose will grow" . They bring themselves to an end.

I just call this a literacy fallacy, in all actuality it's basically just an untrue statement. :o

I'm nitpicking, though. Most of these are just for fun, anyway. :P
