  1. Chapter 17: Fallacies of Argument Mark Ruiz Sam Clark Dora Rodriguez Clay

  2. Fallacies of Emotional Argument (Pathos) • Scare Tactics- Reducing complicated situations into simple threats or the exaggeration of a possible danger to get a desired outcome • Slippery slope- Exaggeration of future consequence by suggesting that a small misstep will initiate a series of reactions, ending a bigger result(“logical fallacies”) Allstate Mayhem Direct TV- Roadside Ditch

  3. Pathos continued • Either or consequences-

  4. Pathos Continued Sentimental Appeals- Relying entirely on manipulatively heart-warming or heart- wrenching appeals to emotion to win support for what has not been otherwise rationally justified Bandwagon- Example: Tebowing. Suggesting that because others are doing it, you should as well.

  5. Fallacies of Authority (Ethos) • Dogmatism- • There’s no way a man could ever love a man or a woman could ever love a woman as much as a man and a woman can love each other(“logical fallacies”). • There’s no way that anyone can argue that abortion is anything other than murder (“logical Fallacies”). • Ad Hominem • Theory: When you destroy the credibility of your opponents you either destroy their ability to present reasonable appeals or distract from the successful arguments offered. • Example:

  6. Fallacies of Logical Argument (Logos) • Hasty Generalizations • Qualify our claims appropriately as generalizations are necessary to understand a large population. • Faulty Causality • Begging the Question Everybody Hates Chris- Stereotype: All black people are good at basketball.

  7. Logos continued • Equivocation- A half Truth • Non-sequitur- • The Straw Man- Becomes an argument against a false opponent. • Faulty Analogy- An analogy is a comparison of two circumstances to better grasp the obscurity of the subject. A faulty analogy is a failed attempt at this.
