Right. There are absolutely no absolutes. If you see the
self-inconsistency in those words, you should be able to see it in
yours as well.
Surprize, this was one of the main philosophical problems the humanists
encountered. Descarte's solution was cogito, ergo sum. This solution is
broadly accepted since the 17th century. Maybe I'm slightly less stupid
than you might think.
Actually I didn't mean it that way at all. If my words seemed
patronizing, it was only out of respect for the presumption (based on
some trivial grammar errors and your return address) that English is
not your first language.
As to the substance of your post, maybe I'm dense but I don't see how
"cogito, ergo sum" explains why self-inconsistency is acceptable.
