All Logical Fallacies
April 2, 2016 at 5:14 pm
http://utminers.utep.edu/omwilliamson/EN...lacies.htm
This is a link to a list of 90 Logical Fallacies, and examples of each. I looked on the AF Hall Of Fallacies, and yes there are some listed, the links do help, but there's not really a website or post there that's clear cut with a ton of them listed that someone could just scroll through.
Which is better:
To die with ignorance, or to live with intelligence?
Truth doesn't accommodate to personal opinions.
The choice is yours.

I have posted in the past RationalWiki's page on logical fallacies, which has such a list.
The one you posted is way more formal/complete; the one I posted is a lighter read with a few more examples of things IRL, if you want to take a look.

Don't worry, my friend. If this be the end, then so shall it be.

The thing I like about this one is that it's not just a bunch of names people don't know with links to explanations of what they mean, it's just clear cut, listed and explained in one page.
I don't know, it's not a big deal, the one you linked is perfectly fine, it's preference, just thought it'd be useful to someone.

I was thinking about doing a video about this topic.
Many people just don't seem to care about this, and then wonder why they aren't taken seriously in a debate.
This is my little mantra: if your argument can be easily modified in order to prove anything, then it actually proves nothing.

Thanks, heat! Great reference!

You know how you drift from one thing to another on google, youtube, etc.
I can't believe there is so much shit everywhere dedicated to woo.
They probably don't think of it as woo, but I'm sure most of us here do...
I was watching a lecture on youtube about the evolution of man. Then I realised this guy's a fucking crackpot!
(Religious people are clever to disguise their bullshit as a form of science in order to legitimise it. I wonder why that is?)
I don't know, geez, maybe because science is true and actually works!
Then I thought I'd look up to see how Dynamo does some of his tricks...(out of curiosity).
Wham! The next 10 youtube videos explain to me how he's an Xmen mutant disguising his skills as magic, or that he's getting help from demons who do the supernatural stuff for him. I'm still undecided as yet, LOL!
And did you guys know there are at least 80 species of aliens here walking amongst us! No? OMG people, wake up!
Fuck me! I'm starting to suspect that critical thinking is the enemy of reality and all that other stuff is real! Sorry God, you're probably right.
I'm on my way to church right now...
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

Careful though not to assume everything that doesn't agree with your preconceived idea's is woo however.
Oh by the way, that Dynamo guy, I did the exact same thing, ended up watching 3 episodes of "Demon Magicians", that guy was the main person in them and they basically showed a trick and then said "Look at that! How is it possible? Can you explain it? if you can't it's DEMON MAGIC." and then I looked at the comments and he said "Look to everyone commenting and hating just do your research or leave the video. people are so ignorant, and they just hate for no reason, do ur research to discover the truth." or some shit.
It's fucking comical.

I love it when they use high ranking officials to give credit to their claim.
Like that ex Canadian Defence Minister who going on about all the aliens here! OK, you must know this stuff because it was your job to feed them and bathe them, was it?
hehehe

The most commonly used one on here and the internet in general is the fallacy fallacy. Just pointing out that someone used a logical fallacy doesn't mean they are wrong.
