A person says - "everything I say to you is a lie."Is he telling you the truth or is he lying?

Answer 1

lets have a mathametical explanation ...

let A = "everything I say to you is a lie."
then A can have 2 values .. TRUE or FALSE.

let A = TRUE then everything he saying is a lie, but he says he is lieing that means the everything he is saying may not be lie but a few things can be lie. That implies that A should be FALSE. but we asumed A = TRUE. we just have proved that A = not TRUE for all he says but is TRUE for some things he says. which means when he says some lies. he is saying some true things also that means his lie is true but his truth is not a lie. and since a lie is false so how can i lie is true and a true is flase so the whole tings is TRUE LIES
:-D

Answer 2

He's lying b/c only 99% of the things were lies but when you asked him about sports/wanting sex/wanting to drink he would never lie :)

Answer 3

Understand, that at that second he is already lying to you; So, it does mean the other things he is going to tell you are true, because there are lies!
