Paradox

      This word has a strange connotation with it. Obviously, it is NOT two doctors (pair of docs). A paradox is the idea of two truths that contradict eachother. In my class on good and evil, faith is described as what happens when logic ends. To understand faith, you must understood that it can not be understood.
      Another, more tantalizing paradox is the pasta in the dining hall. There is a full tray of pasta put out every dinner. To the right, is a tomato based sauce; creamy pesto sauce on the left. Both are appropriate for penne pasta. They do not, however, belong together. The combination would not taste very good. This is how the idea of a paradox works.
     The movie Inception is full of the paradoxical. This allows the "architect" to move and manipulate reality within a person's dream. A staircase that eternally goes up and down is an example of this idea.
