It is ALWAYS wrong to knowingly make a false statement. It becomes illegal and a violation of the law depending on what the false statement is about or pertains to. There are several statutes both civil and criminal which make it a crime to make false statements and the punishment depends upon the circumstances.

is this statement true or false BC?

If the statement is false, then "This statement is false", is a lie, making it "This statement is true." The statement is now true. But if the statement is true, then "This statement is false" is true, making the statement false. But if the statement is false, then "This statement is false", is a lie, making it "This statement is true." The statement is now true. But if the statement is true, then... It's one of the biggest paradoxes ever, just like saying, "I'm lying right now."


This statement is false brain teaser?

Let us consider "This statement is false." This quotation could also be read as "This, which is a statement, is false," which could by extent be read as "This is a statement and it is false." Let's call this quotation P. The statement that P is a statement will be called Q. If S, then R and S equals R; therefore, if Q, then P equals not-P (since it equals Q and not-P). Since P cannot equal not-P, we know that Q is false. Since Q is false, P is not a statement. Since P says that it is a statement, which is false, P itself is false. Note that being false does not make P a statement; all things that are statements are true or false, but it is not necessarily true that all things that are true or false are statements. In summary: "this statement is false" is false because it says it's a statement but it isn't.

Would make this statement FALSE The Commandant of the Coast Guard .?

To make the statement "The Commandant of the Coast Guard" false, one could specify that the individual currently holding the position is not the Commandant. For instance, if the current Commandant is Admiral Linda L. Fagan, stating "The Commandant of the Coast Guard is Admiral Karl L. Schultz" would render the statement false, as he is not the current Commandant. Alternatively, claiming that there is no such position as the Commandant of the Coast Guard would also make the statement false.
