Paradoxes!

Well, I love thinking about paradoxes. They stretch my brain and the debates on how to solve them can go on for quite some time. So I have decided to dedicate a blog to some paradoxes I enjoy, and give a general overview of why they are paradoxes. The first:
"Can God create a rock that He cannot pick up?" At first, I thought, "Of course He can! He's God, He does what He wants." But then I realized that God is supposed to be all-powerful. A rock that cannot be lifted by anybody SHOULD be lifted by Him, quite easily. He can create a rock and choose not to lift it, but can He really create something that is beyond His own power if He is all-powerful?

Second paradox: "If Pinocchio says that his nose is about to grow, does it?" The easiest way for me to describe that paradox..Well, I can't, so my friend Dave will. "The only reason it's true is because it's a lie." HOWEVER, if his nose grows, it's now a true statement...So his nose SHOULDN'T grow...Because he didn't lie. Have fun with that one.

Final paradox, and one that doesn't really need explaining. It cannot be explained, really. Again, have fun. "Everything I say is a lie."

.....I feel like The Riddler.

How would you respond to these paradoxes?
