Logical Fallacies: How Good-Looking Arguments Go Wrong – A fallacy is an error in reasoning that makes an argument weak or invalid, even though it may look convincing. Formal fallacies are mistakes in the form (structure) of a deductive argument, such as affirming the consequent. Informal fallacies are mistakes in content, language or relevance, such as ad hominem, straw man, false dilemma, slippery slope, appeal to popularity or false authority, hasty generalisation, post hoc and circular reasoning. Spotting them helps us discuss fairly.
