Defiant to the sage philosopher came to fame due to dispute with him.But the second began the conversation:
- Hello - said the sage.- Answer my question.
Philosopher stiffened and the old man continued.
- Two men come down the chimney.One comes out with a clean face and the other - with a dirty.Who among them will wash?
The young philosopher's eyes on the forehead climbed.
- That's what you wanted to teach me ?!
sage nodded.
- Well, of course, the one with the dirty face!
- Wrong.Think logically: the one with the dirty face, look at that one person is clean, and decides that his face was too clean.And those who have a clean face, look at that one face is dirty, he decides that he, too, got dirty, wash and go.
- Artfully conceived!- I admired guest.- Come on, Starch, give me one more test!
- Well, young man.Two men come down the chimney.One comes out with a clean face and the other - with a dirty.Who among them will wash?
- But we have seen - the one with the clean face!
- Wrong.Both will go to wash.Think logically: one with a clean face, look at the one who has a dirty face, and decides that his face was too dirty.And the one who has a dirty face, will see that the second went to wash, will understand that he has a dirty face, and also go to wash.
- I had not thought of!It is amazing - I made a logical error!Let's take another test!
- Okay.Two men come down the chimney.One comes out with a clean face and the other - with a dirty.Who among them will wash?
- Well ... Both go wash.
- Wrong.Wash will not make one of them.Think logically: the one with the dirty face, look at that one person is clean, and will not wash.And those who have a clean face will see that the one with the dirty face, is not going to wash, he realizes that his face is clean, too, and will not go to wash.
young man was in despair.
- Well, believe me, I can find the correct answer!Ask for something else!
- Okay.Two men go down a chimney ...
- Oh, God!None of them will not go to wash !!!
- Wrong.Tell me, how can there be such that the two men went down the same pipe, and one of them smeared face, and the other - not ?!Do not you understand?The whole question - nonsense, and if you spend a life, answering pointless questions, all of your answers will also be meaningless.
