In chapter 8 of the Epstein book they talk about general claims and there contradictions. A contradictory claim is one that always has the opposite truth value. The book has a lot of really good and simple examples that lay it straight out and make it easy to understand, and I really like that because rather than giving just a definition it gives us many thing to look at and think about so that we don’t make the same mistake.I find this useful because rather than making myself sound dumb, I can avoid a contradiction when I am being witty!:)
I also liked this concept because as I was reading it, it made me think of that starburst commercial with the scottish-korean, and the albino lifegard lol. thats not possible so its funny, and it is a contradiction although the examples in the book are a little less funny they get the job done!
Dont be a condradiction!:)
