At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Sorry Stimbo, I only did it to invigorate the thread. I take it that it's no longer a necro.
Anyway, here's my take on logic101. The easiest logic fallacy people make is is by not following the logic triangle. Eg, If I say Stimbo is a man, and then state that Jesus was a man, does that mean that Stimbo is Jesus? Answer: of course not, Stimbo is REAL.
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear. 
Ok, just to be sure that I.get this right - so you're now saying that Stimbo.is not Jesus?
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

Yes, I'm reasonably confident in my answer.
No God, No fear.

Anyone who wants to contribute should start a new thread dedicated to some part of logic (an argument, a fallacy, etc), and then contact a staff member so that this thread can be updated. There's something amusing about an atheist forum with a logic 101 thread, in which the only category is "Logical Fallacies" 
No true logical fallacies ??
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

I thought I'd throw it in since this thread bobbed up! Apologies to those who are sick of hearing about my website. I sadly haven't had the energy to do anything new to it for a while now, but I'm sure I will in the future. Feel free to send me a private message.
