Paradoxical Domino Effect

The idea that introducing or accepting a single paradox means introducing and accepting an infinite amount of subsequent other paradoxes, because of the first paradox.

The main take away here is you don't want to introduce any paradoxes to a line of reasoning or any model, because you'll have to also by proxy also accept an infinite amount of other paradoxes that are thus created by the first one as a consequence.
Paradoxical Domino Effect Example #1: God exists therefore any other god could also exist. Since God exists so could faeries, werewolves, vampires, Big Foot, and The Loch Ness monster. Since faeries could exist as a consequence of this, magic also must exist since they use magic.

Paradoxical Domino Effect Example #2: Going back in time is possible; therefore, you can go back in time and kill your own grandpa so you couldn't be born. Since you can't be born you must not exist. Since you no longer exist... wait what if going back in time is actually just a copy of the past you are going into? So there must be infinite pasts you can go into. Since there are infinite pasts you can go into...

Paradoxiautohuiotheocide

Paradoxiautohuiotheocide
(noun)
The paradoxical act in Christian theology wherein God, through the crucifixion of Jesus, simultaneously commits filicide and self‑sacrifice — killing his own divine son who is consubstantial with himself. Used humorously or pedantically to describe any situation where someone sabotages themselves by sacrificing a part of their identity that is also them.
Etymology: From Greek paradoxon (contrary to expectation), auto (self), huios (son), theos (god), and Latin ‑cide (to kill).

See also:
• Paradoxiautoteknotheocide — variant using teknon (child) instead of huios (son).
• Autogenotheocide — emphasizes “offspring” but risks confusion with genocide.
• Autoparadoxidgenotheocide — maximalist pedantic form: “self‑paradox‑offspring‑god‑killing.”
• Theocide / Deicide — existing terms meaning “killing a god,” but lacking the paradoxical self‑referential nuance.
"The often cited paradoxiautohuiotheocide found in the New Testament tends to lead extensive debates over the nature of God and Jesus Christ. Paradoxiautohuiotheocide is a contrived convolution derived of the apparent paradox of Jesus Christ being both the son of God and God incarnate. No other express examples of this nature appear in theological mythology, and appears to be unique to the Christian faith. While it is true other mythologies certainly have gods who die, gods who sacrifice themselves, or gods who kill their offspring, no other has constructed it such that the demigod offspring embodies the parental deity leading to the dualistic suicide/filicide/patricide construction as found in the New Testament. It is unique as it fuses three different, yet common, mythological tropes; deity-mortal offspring, incarnation of the deity as a mortal, and self-sacrifice Paradoxiautohuiotheocide perfectly describes this narrative fusion within the Biblical narrative."
