Benardete's paradox
name
(philosophy)
A
philosophical
problem
whereby
a
man
intends
to
walk
a
mile
from
a
particular
point,
but
an
infinity
of
gods
separately
plan
to
obstruct
him.
One
of
them
will
raise
a
barrier
to
stop
his
further
advance
if
he
reaches
the
half-mile
point,
a
second
if
he
reaches
the
quarter-mile
point,
a
third
if
he
goes
one-eighth
of
a
mile,
and
so
on
ad
infinitum.
The
paradox
involves
the
fact
that
(i)
the
man
cannot
begin
walking,
because
a
barrier
will
stop
him
even
at
the
shortest
distance,
but
(ii)
if
he
does
not
begin
walking,
no
barrier
will
rise.

(philosophy) A philosophical problem whereby a man intends to walk a mile from a particular point, but an infinity of gods separately plan to obstruct him. One of them will raise a barrier to stop his further advance if he reaches the half-mile point, a second if he reaches the quarter-mile point, a third if he goes one-eighth of a mile, and so on ad infinitum. The paradox involves the fact that (i) the man cannot begin walking, because a barrier will stop him even at the shortest distance, but (ii) if he does not begin walking, no barrier will rise.
Benardete's paradox is a philosophical paradox named after the philosopher Gregory Vlastos.
