Something Just for the AF family
|
|
Maybe this will take more than a couple days to do a thorough job. The information you guys have given me is probably just the tip of the iceberg in the subject of logic, but it's has given me a good idea of how this should be. I'll come back when I feel I have something presentable.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers. Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities. --Voltaire Nietzsche isn't dead. How do I know he lives? He lives in my mind.

Where's the Hasty Generalization option for the first one? Hehe.
Haven't finished the test yet. Some of them I feel are more than one fallacy or I have to put "none of the above" or "non-sequitur" because I can't find what I'm looking for. "This came after that so this happened because of that" Not heard of this fallacy before, lol. I'm sure there must be a name for that fallacy. It's basically mistaking a temporal sequence for causation. "We know God exists because the Bible says so. what the Bible says about God is true because the Bible is the inspired word of God" This does eventually beg the question of how either of those premises are true but more specifically it's circular reasoning. Begging the question as a logical fallacy would be more like "The Bible is true because it is." or "The Bible is true because it's accurate".... but that begs the question of why its accurate "Oh it's accurate because it's not wrong". If you assume a premise based on nothing and answer it with another premise that is identical to or synonymous with the first one then that's the Question Begging fallacy. If you answer it with a premise that may be completely different but then answer that premise with the first one then that's the Circular Reasoning fallacy. "Scientists want us to believe complex life just magically put itself together. I tell you, if I put the pieces of a watch in a bag with a few sparks of electricity and shake it up and down for a few billion years, I will not hear it tick. So evolution is absurd." This one would be False Analogy. "Our Church takes hot meals to the elderly and the sick every Thanksgiving and we have a special offering for the Meals on Wheels program in our town. We shouldn't be judged negatively because of a few bad apples." This one is a form of the Nivana Fallacy. More specifically this particular form of the Nirvana Fallacy is like the Perfect Solution Fallacy but it's in a negative rather than positive form. Basically "Oh we're not completely bad therefore we're not bad at all" is the same form as "If we can't find the perfect solution then we shouldn't bother at all". "The Bible says Jesus hair was as white as lamb's wool. Lamb's wool is kinky. So Jesus was black." All I can say about this one is LOL. I'm guessing you don't mean "kinky" like the way I usually use the word, lol. I can't fault this one: "If you didn't vote for Clinton you're a Trump supporter." It is indeed False Dilemma/ False Dichotomy.
