This man is real? (Posted on 2003-07-17) Difficulty: 3 of 5
There was a man who was born before his father, killed his mother, and married his sister.

Yet, there was nothing wrong with what he had done. Why?

Some Thoughts Another totally different answer | Comment 19 of 25 |

I've seen the solution and the comments, but did not find anybody thinking differently. On a totally different view point ... ( and some might find it disturbing even ) ... I do not find anything wrong with the man in question... However, there might be a flaw in the question and also the Father.

Lets call the man in question ADAM, and consider the statement without the commas !

It now says that Adam's father killed Adam's mother after Adam was born. (Quite obvious, otherwise it would be rather difficult for Adam to be born.)... and then later Adam's father married ....

This reveals that there is nothing wrong with Adam, but his father is a Murderer & Creep.
