(Even though an argument has failed, there may still one that succeeds) Similar to the previous, this fallacy attempts to prove that an idea/event is false on the grounds that all arguments made so far for the idea have failed.
"I have yet to hear a reasonable argument against quitting my job and moving to the Alaskan wild, therefore it must be the right choice to make."Īrgumentum ad logicam - Argument to logic This fallacy attempts to prove an idea/event on the grounds that it has yet to be proven false.

The Slippery slope fallacy happens when one person concludes that an idea/event will cause a series of other ideas/events, usually increasing in severity, without offering evidence as to why the trigger occurs. Person 1: "I believe hunting for sport is immoral." Person 2: "Apparently, my opponent wants us all to be vegetarians because animals are more important than people."

"You can't trust elves, they're all stuck-up know-it-alls who think they're better than everyone else." This fallacy proposes a conclusion for all instances of the premise, even though there are most likely to be exceptions.

It must be because it's so much colder today than the last few days."Ĭirculus in demonstrando - Circular argument "There are more people on the train than usual today. Evidence may eventually support a link, however concurrence is not enough to prove the conclusion. Like the previous fallacy, this one proposes that an idea/event is linked to another idea/event because they happen at the same time. "The Giants lost today because I forgot to wear my cap backward."Ĭum hoc ergo propter hoc - (Along) With, therefore because of While there may be evidence to eventually support the belief that the two events are linked, the conclusion that the one must be due to the other simply because it happened afterward is false. This fallacy attempts to create a causal relationship between ideas/events.
