My brother was floored when I was first studying Greek philosophy and came across Zeno's paradox. One of the things he said he'd like is a book that is "like that." Does anyone know of a book on Zeno's paradox or which has similar neat-to-think-about content?

This may explain the old adage about Baptists being Methodists with shoes, and Presbyterians being Baptists who can read. To round out the adage, Lutherans might qualify as Presbyterians who drink to excess, and Episcopalians as Lutherans who know when to say when. - D.G. Hart

I have been looking for one like that as well. If you find one, please post it here.

Not exactly Greek Philosophy, but plenty of weirdness to go round...
