📋 Some Important Fallacies
Chapter 3 Fallacies and Biases | Philosophical Ethics
Reality is, you know, the tip of an iceberg of irrationality that we’ve managed to drag ourselves up onto for a few panting moments before we slip back into the sea of the unreal.
I liked how this article broke down what fallacies are, gave some examples of fallacies and gave really good definitions on what some fallacies may be. I also liked how it talked about how we can examine some claims to see if they are a fallacy or a bias.
I find fallacies very unsettling. The idea that there are fallacies that we cannot help but believe, such as visual illusions, makes me wonder what other logical fallacies we are all falling prey to without knowing.
I never knew or even heard of this word before. I do like how this is shown and explained because I was very unclear when I started reading.
I have never heard of the word fallacies before and I think that this article was a great resource. It broke down what exactly fallacies are and it gave some examples, and for me, that made it a lot easier to understand.
logical thinking is the root of fallacies and biases which makes thinking itself the most contravsal thing that exists. Being abler to prove anything is sci important to man that thinking with reasons and logic makes thinking the most useful thing ever. That in itself bring evolution and new ideas, thinking of a way to do something new is evolution at its base
This article did a good job of breaking down the definition of fallacies through specific examples. It gave me a better understanding on how to examine certain claims.
