Content Fallacies (False dilemma):

(You want) to

Item 3: quotation
I hate mankind, for I think myself one of the
best of them, and I know how bad I am.(Joseph Baretti, quoted in Boswell’s Life of Samuel Johnson)
Content fallacies (hasty generalization):
this is a form of fallacies of presumption.
I am one of the best of mankind
I am bad
------------------------------------------------------
therefore: the whole mankind is bad
this is a form of fallacies of presumption.
I am one of the best of mankind
I am bad
------------------------------------------------------
therefore: the whole mankind is bad
Joseph assumes that the whole mankind is bad because
he is one of them and he is bad: what is true for one member is true for the
whole group (false premise)
From my viewpoint, u should indicate clearly the name of structural fallacy.
Trả lờiXóaItem 1: Argument structure: direct way of reasoning
=>valid
Item 2: Argument structure: affirming the consequent
If A then B
B
……………........
Therefore, A
=>invalid
Item 3: You have to pay attention to write down these premises according to structure
thank you for your comment. However, i have to say that i wrote the structure of these argument; you don't see A,B and conclusion, do you???
XóaThanks for your entry.
Trả lờiXóaI have some comments on it
Firstly, argument of the first entry is invalid because the inference is incorrect.
Secandly, the third item is hasty generalization, but you should write the structure to show the wrong premise.
Moreover, it is better if you diversify the types of fallacy (the first two items are structure fallacy)
