If there's an exception to every rule, is there an exception to that rule?

Answer 1

I am quite exceptional and break rules if that helps....hug x

Answer 2

your initial premise is incorrect. There is not an exception to every rule. It's just that most rules do not apply to absolute things, and due to languahe usually being imprecise an exception can be found through interpreting some words or phrases differently. For example, you can not be colder than absolute zero. You can not travel faster than light. You can not predict both the speed and the location of an electron at the same time.

lol
if in fact 'there is an exception to every rule' is universally recognized as a rule, then the rule may be applied to the rule itself.
although i must admit that if there's an exception to every rule, what's the point to having rules? then a new set of rules must be devised for the exception.
oy vey-look what you got me into.
good question.
super answer.

Answer 4

Yes, for some rules have no exceptions

Answer 5

I guess yes. In your own weird way, yes. I think it would have to depend on the rule, and the exception you are about to apply to it.

Answer 6

That is the oddest question ever! Yet totally logical! I suppose. Are you in some college class and your professor asked you? Or did you come up with it yourself?! Kudos to you if you did!

Congratulations -- you have rediscovered Russell's paradox (is the set of all sets that don't contain themselves as members a member of that set?)

Answer 8

Haha. That is a really good question. I never thought of that before....
