The card paradox is a non self referential variant of the liarparadox constructed by Philip Jourdain . ref name OConnorRobertson2005 It is also known as the postcard paradox , Jourdain paradox or Jourdain s paradox . The paradox Suppose there is a card with statements printed on both sides class prettytable Front The sentence on the other side of this card is TRUE. Back The sentence on the other side of this card is FALSE. Trying to assign a truth value to either of them leads to a paradox . If the first statement is true, then so is the second. But if the second statement is true, then the first statement is false. It follows that if the first statement is true, then the first statement is false. If the first statement is false, then the second is false, too. But if the second statement is false, then the first statement is true. It follows that if the first statement is false, then the first statement is true. The same mechanism applies to the second statement. Neither of the sentences employs self reference , instead this is a case of circular reference . See Yablo s paradox for a variation of the liarparadox that does not even rely on circular reference.

From the logical point of view, this can be taken as a Mathematical proof proof that the sentence every rule has an exception is false a simple example of a proof technique known as reductio ad absurdum . More formally, Every rule has an exception. Statement Every rule has an exception has an exception. By 1 There exists some rule R without exception. By 2 Since R is a rule, by the first statement it must have an exception. But as stated in 3, it does not have an exception an apparent contradiction. Yet again, the rule may be true, as well as false, in particular, if the rule R is Every rule has an exception . Such a rule has no domain to restrict it, and so its truth and falsehood need not conflict, as they do not compete on any domain. Variations on the Paradox The liarparadox has similar self reference, with the added twist that rejecting it leads to another paradox. If everything is possible, then it is possible for anything to be impossible. The only rule is that there are no rules. The only thing certain is that there is nothing certain. If everything has an opposite, then the opposite of there being an opposite to everything, is that there is not an opposite to everything. If everything should be taken in moderation, then moderation should itself be taken moderately, meaning that not everything would be taken in moderation.
