In this forum, questions are asked which are really tough to answer. Some philosophical, some regarding morality and many others. Have fun, and post your own personal tough questions!
Anything that is a contradiction in terms is self extinguishing.
Married bachelors, square circles, invisible pink unicorns and other paradoxical things that lead to nonsensical results, make language worthless for expressing truth. There is no point if everything is true and everything is false. It is only good for insane clown trolls to use to cause confusion.

You are making excuses and you are posting straw-man aspersions that do nothing to state any points. You distort the meaning of words in an ad hoc manner that reveals a highly sophisticated troll mind.
Cognitive distortions are exaggerated and irrational thoughts, identified in cognitive therapy and its variants, which in theory perpetuate some psychological disorders. The theory of cognitive distortions was presented by David Burns in The Feeling Good Handbook in 1989,[1] after studying under Aaron T. Beck.[2] Eliminating these distortions and negative thoughts is said to improve mood and discourage maladies such as depression and chronic anxiety. The process of learning to refute these distortions is called "cognitive restructuring".
