The famous horse (Posted on 2003-09-17) Difficulty: 1 of 5
You see a big painting of a horse with the following inscription below it:

"There once was a horse who had great fame. What do you think was the horse's name."

You walk away wondering what the horse's name was. What was it?

I agree with Brian Smith that you are taking this too seriously, but I can disprove you this way... (remember he started it, and I don't have the God existance forum to unload my debating on.)

I believe much of the Bible was written a long time ago, and I don't think it was originally written in English. And as for your Why anyone would go out in this weather is beyond me... is INTERPRETED as a question, but it really isn't one. The subject (Why anyone would go out in this weather) uses a verb (is) for (the horse's name).

Also, notice that the question you are answering is NOT what do you think... because that is only an inscription... The real question is What was it?

Finally, in the distant planet of Horsople which I alone have contact to, there is a horse named "What do you think" and he isn't too happy for you to say that he doesn't exist.
