I call it...a BRAIN TWISTER!
Yes yes, it's 10:52 PM, yes yes I know I should be doing work. Yes yes I know I have a schedule to keep. Yes yes it's already broken...SHUT UP! Damn 1 hour and a half on transit..."Take the bus for once!" my ass...
Anyway, here it is. It's a bit of PHL100 for you, and it'll really mess with your head.
God existed at t1 and Jones mowed his lawn at t2. If God existed at t1 and Jones mowed his lawn at t2, then God believed at t1 that Jones would mow his lawn at t2. So God believed at t1 taht Jones would mow his lawn at t2. Furthermore, if God believed at t1 that Jones would mow his lawn at t2, then it was within Jones's power not to mow his lawn at t2 only if it was within Jones's power at t2 to bring it about that God held a false belief at t1 or to bring it about that at t1 God did not hold the belief He had at t1. Therefore, it was within Jones's power not to mow his lawn at t2 only if it was within Jones's power at t2 to bring it about that God held a false belief at t1 or to bring it about that at t1 God did not hold the belief He held at t1. But it was not within Jones's power at t2 to bring it about that God held a false belief at t1 and it was not within Jones's power at t2 to bring it about that at t1 God did not hold the belief He held at t1. So it was not within Jones's power at t2 to bring it about that God held a false belief at t1 or to bring it about that at t1 God did not hold the belief He held at t1. Therefore, it was not within Jones's power at t2 not to mow his lawn.
Have fun?
