What do you call "lying the truth" into someone?
I'd rather not give names but essentially someone I know tried to convince me I had said something, rather serious, to someone else that would have really been devastating had the "truth been lied" into me and the person involved. Luckily the person involved recalled I had never said such a thing to them and the person lying eventually admitted to having made it up. What do you call this? The head liar had them self and another person directly confront me trying to convince me of the lie, which was a very serious one, had it been successful. Anyway what do you call this?

Do you tell the truth?
There is no way to be certain just by asking. Someone who is lying would lie about telling the truth.The "Liar's Paradox" is that no one can rationally answer a question about the truth by saying "I am lying." This is clearly because if you are telling the truth, you say "I am telling the truth" and if you are actually lying (about lying), you would again say "I am telling the truth" (a lie).If you said you were lying, you would have to be telling the truth, but you're not because you are lying. This is similar to the double-negative paradigm ("He's not right...he's just not wrong").

If a chicken says that all chickens always lie is he telling the truth?
No, he is lying. If he were saying the truth, then, in theory, as he is a chicken, he would be lying. Then, he cannot tell the truth. So, he is lying. But, if he is lying, then all chickens say the truth, and he cannot be lying. The key lies in the word "all". He is lying that ALL chickens always lie, therefore not necessarily all chickens say the truth. It could be that some chickens always lie. The truth does not have to be the opposite. Therefore, he is lying that chickens always lie, and the truth is that "some chickens always lie".
