B. Russel thus presented his paradox: “In a certain town lived a hairdresser, WHO shaved all and only those men who did not shave themselves. Did that hairdresser shave himself?” Every answer leads to contradictions. Russel solved the paradox with TYPE THEORY. LOGICAL TYPE means as if the level (degree) of the utterance.Type theory PROHIBITS the creation (at the same level) of sentences: “x is an x element”.

The paradox of the hairdresser is that in one sentence we combine the statements of different levels. In college, I was dazzled. Then I realized that this is not so much solved by the paradox as:
(a) FORBIDDEN to speak in a certain way
(b) instructs to create metajugging indefinitely. As you know, the idea that It was God who created the world, Russel already at the age of 11, found it unreasonable, precisely because further questions could be asked: who created God, who was the creator of God, and so on indefinitely. It looks A BIT LIKE russel at the age of 11 discovered a problem that he solved at the age of 41 with an argument he himself challenged at the age of 11.

According to the beliefs of the African Tribe of Bantu:
(a) WISDOM consists in penetration into the nature of being, and forces
(b) these forces are governed by the HIERARCHY– the higher ones interact with the lower
(c) above all stands God, who is spirit and creator.
