- All mammals exhibit homosexual behavior.
- William Lane Craig is a mammal.
- There William Lane Craig exhibits homosexual behavior.

Both premises are true in their own right, but the conclusion is false (at least as far as anyone knows).

Wow, I think this hits the nail on its head! This is exactly the type of implicit shifts in meanings of words that are exploited by many of those arguments.
