Evolutionary speaking, can the human brain deal with abstract paradoxes, or does our evolution deny us this?

One argument might be that since we actually have a word for what a paradox is, we have recognized a category of unsolvable problems of that sort. Strictly speaking though, what would a "concrete" paradox be? A mobius strip? Why even attach the word abstract to it?
