Fallacies. A nifty little website

Since this is a debate board, I thought this was a cool little website I ran into on different fallacies in reasoning. If you ever hear someone claim a 'red herring' or 'ad hominem' you will know what they are talking about.

Try looking up "Guilt by Association" and compare this to your behavior in insisting that not believing in the Flood or Creationism implies not believing in the other miracles. Then look up "Pot calling kettle black" in an idiom reference.

No, I don't want to get personal. I just thought I'd point that out to reciprocate--for your reading pleasure.

Sorry but you just committed a fallacy, and your post isn't credible.

Thanks for the site info!




Now for a Monty Python reference:

"I'd like to buy an argument please"

Excellent site.

I found another site like that one, but it was pro-death (every example was showing pro-life people as using fallacies to advance their goals while abortion advocates where presenting sound arguments). Because of that I never advertised the site.

But this one has excellent examples that are 'neutral' from what I can see.

thanks for the link.

Thanks. I wish they had one for kids. We start formal logic next year....

Calling things as they are isn't logical fallacy.
