5 Fallacies a day - Day 2

Proverbs 26:4

Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest you be like him yourself.

Proverbs 18:2

A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion.

Proverbs 29:9

If a wise man has an argument with a fool, the fool only rages and laughs, and there is no quiet.

Proverbs 1:7

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Proverbs 18:6

A fool's lips walk into a fight, and his mouth invites a beating.

 

The key to understanding a fair fight is stick to the topic at hand and stick to what scripture says - 

If people don’t want to fight fair - or argue fair - then walk away. Don’t engage. 

and here are 5 ways people try to trick you to do just the opposite.

 

This year there is going to be 2.6 million weddings in the US alone. and all I can think about is… wow that is a lot of fighting coming down the pipe! 

 

  1. Ignoring the evidence Traditionally called apiorism. We often ignore things we don't want to consider for fear they will produce more work or further confusion.

So Ben Carson was recently quoted as saying “if it is just a fetus, than why are we harvesting human tissue and organs from it?”       Proabortionists will just say “well thats not the point  OR  it doesn’t matter what you call it…

Most people who argue or debate you will do so out of ignoring the facts. If is your job to continue to point out the facts.

 

 

  1. Loaded label or definition Loaded labels or definitions use words that evaluate or have different connotations.

Again a classic is we have redefined killing an unborn child from Murder to abortion and now to pro- choice. 

Most big businesses and politicians are highly skilled at that. Careful that you don’t fall for a reasonably labeled extreme.

 

  1. Non sequitur Translated as “it does not follow,” non sequitur refers to any claim that doesn’t follow from its premises or is supported by irrelevant premises.

 

YOu can’t give me a ticket, I never get tickets.  OR You can’t possibly say the President is suffering from dementia… we have never elected a president with dementia. 

 

  1. Poisoning the well Arguers poison the well by discrediting an opponent or opposing view in advance.

 

They can’t possibly tell me how to build wealth… all their wealth came from their rich daddy. 

I can’t possible believe in Christianity… the Christians I know are the most hypocritical and stuck people. 

 

 

  1. Post hoc, ergo propter hoc Meaning “after this, therefore because of this,” this fallacy happens when a sequential relationship is mistaken for a causal relationship. “Cramming for a test really helps; I crammed for my psychology test and got an A.” 

 

 

The best way to pay off your debts is to play the lottery… I bought a couple tickets and paid off my whole school loan.

Proverbs 1:7

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.

 

The Fear of the Lord… i.e. I want to make sure I make him look good.

And when that is my motive, he will use me and guide me in discussions, debates or arguments.
