Resolution of Common Paradoxes

Abstract

The Common Paradox Resolution Argument presents a systematic approach to addressing some of philosophy’s most enduring paradoxes. By analyzing the logical structure and underlying assumptions of each paradox, this argument proposes unique resolutions that aim to preserve logical consistency while clarifying apparent contradictions. The argument covers well-known paradoxes, including the Liar’s Paradox, the Self-Reference Paradox, and the Complete Knowledge Paradox, among others, each of which is dissected and reinterpreted to reveal insights into language, truth, and self-reference. This approach leverages newly developed logical fallacies—such as the Arbitrary Restriction Fallacy and the Self-Reference Paradox Fallacy—created specifically to address the nuances within these paradoxes. The argument contends that by identifying and naming these fallacies, it becomes possible to resolve paradoxical scenarios by revealing flaws in their foundational premises. Ultimately, the Common Paradox Resolution Argument provides a robust framework for interpreting and resolving paradoxes, contributing to a clearer understanding of logical structures and enhancing philosophical discourse on fundamental questions of truth and self-consistency.
