  • DQ 2
  • Logic can do a great deal in helping us
    understand our arguments. Explain what advantages
    we obtain by studying logic in terms of improving
    our reasoning. Consider a debate over whether
    prayer should be allowed in public schools.
    Explain what logic can and cannot do. In other
    words, what kinds of questions and topics are not
    decided by logical analysis?

  • DQ 1
  • Considering the fallacies discussed in Chapter
    Four of An Introduction to Logic, construct three
    different arguments that display distinct
    fallacies. Give an explanation of why each makes
    a mistake in drawing the conclusion it does.
    Review your classmates examples and see if they,
    in fact, commit the fallacy identified.

  • One rich source of fallacies is the media
    television, radio, magazines, and the Internet

    distinct fallacies you see committed in the
    media. Do you think it is more likely that you
    will not be fooled by these fallacies having
    studied logic? What do you think those presenting
    these arguments assume about the logical

    history classes, one in the morning and one in
    the afternoon. Yesterday she gave the same test
    to both classes. Anyone who failed the test must
    take a retest. Since a greater percentage of
    students who took the morning test failed the
    test than students who took the afternoon test,
    more of Orlofs morning history students than

  • DQ 1 As stated in our text book scientists
    design experiments and try to obtain results
    verifying or disproving a hypothesis, but
    philosophers are the driving force in determining
    what factors determine the validity of scientific
    results. (Mosser, 2011). Karl Popper's
    philosophy of science uses modus as the central
    method of disconfirming, or falsifying,
    scientific hypotheses.

  • Imagine someone asks you what you have learned in
    your logic class and what you found to be the
    most useful information you learned there. Is it
    important for people to study logic? What kinds
    of mistakes might they make without having been
    exposed to a careful study of reasoning provided
    by logic?
