Several hypotheses are critically examined which have been proposed to clarify the discrepancy between the theoretical and observed solar neutrino fluxes. It is noted that these hypotheses explicitly or implicitly suggest that the sun is not a standard main-sequence star. The hypotheses attribute the discrepancy to a four-fold decrease in the neutrino flux from B-8, steady intermixing of one kind or another in the sun, sudden intermixing in the depths of the sun, centrifugal acceleration of rapidly rotating nuclei, or the influence of the internal solar magnetic field. Each of these phenomena is shown either to contradict basic physical concepts or to be too ineffective to be the unique cause of the discrepancy. Two theories are noted which may adequately explain the neutrino paradox.
