Assault On Free Speech

Tu quoque/appeal to hypocrisy is a common logical fallacy.

Not sure know what YOU mean by 'your ilk'. Atheists are not an ilk,being only people who disbelieve in gods.

If I were to use the term 'ilk' referring to you, I would mean a politically and socially conservative person who may or may not also be a young earth creationist loon.

Quote:Tu quoque (play /tuːˈkwoʊkwiː/),[1] (Latin for "you, too" or "you, also") or the appeal to hypocrisy, is a logical fallacy that attempts to discredit the opponent's position by asserting the opponent's failure to act consistently in accordance with that position; it attempts to show that a criticism or objection applies equally to the person making it. This dismisses someone's point of view based on criticism of the person's inconsistency, and not the position presented.[2] Thus, it is a form of the ad hominem argument.[3]

You must not have been following the previous conversations. You should probably ask Jaysyn what he meant when he first used the term 'your ilk'. My use of the term had nothing to do with Atheists. My use of it was in reference to the 'Leftwing' ilk who trumpet the politically correct high road and then set standards for everyone else that they themselves don't abide by.....but I think you knew what I meant.
You fabricated a false argument to create a 'cry victim role' illusion. It's a practice that's commonly used by you crybabies on the Left....

Quote:A straw man is a type of argument and is an informal fallacy based on misrepresentation of an opponent's position. To "attack a straw man" is to create the illusion of having refuted a proposition by replacing it with a superficially similar yet unequivalent proposition (the "straw man"), and refuting it, without ever having actually refuted the original position.

Quote:It was an awful mistake to characterize based upon religion. I should not judge any theist that way, I must remember what I said in order to change.
