FAULTY LOGIC, UNSUPPORTED FACTS, AND EMOTIONAL APPEAL

a) LOGIC – is the use and study of valid reasoning.

b) FAULTY - (of reasoning and other mental processes) mistaken or misleading because of flaws.

Faulty logic describes poor reasoning, such as the use of fallacious arguments like personal (ad
hominem) attacks, irrelevancies, analogies.

Example: They fall into three main types: Distraction; Ambiguity; and Form.

1. Fallacies of Distraction

Ad baculum (Veiled threat): "to the stick":  - threatening an opponent if they don’t agree with you; - "If
you don’t agree with me you’ll get hurt!"

2. Fallacies of Ambiguity

Division: assuming that what is true of whole must be true of the parts; - "The Lakers are a great team,
so every player must be great too."

3. Fallacies of Form

Post hoc ergo propter hoc (False cause): "after this, therefore because of this;" - assuming that a
temporal sequence proves a causal relationship; - "I saw a great movie before my test; that must be why
I did so well."
c) FACTS – something that has really occurred or is actually the case.

...unsupported facts are those facts claimed by an individual or a group of individuals that have actually
occurred but were unable to provide sufficient evidence to support their claim... (see full details

d) APPEAL - the power of arousing a sympathetic response. 

An emotional appeal is a method of persuasion that's designed to create an emotional response.


Emotional appeals persuade audiences by arousing the emotions. They refer to the speaker or writer’s
goal of arousing the emotions of an audience to move them to act.

Example: Emotional appeals are especially prevalent in advertising. When fashion magazines play on our
insecurities about body image, they're using emotional appeals. When political ads play on our fears,
telling us that voting for someone will lead to financial ruin or wars, they're using emotional appeals.

A short summary of the story

Romeo and Juliet fall in love at a party. But they come from families which hate
each other. They are sure they will not be allowed to marry. Nevertheless, helped
by Friar Laurence, they marry in secret instead. Unfortunately, before their
wedding night Romeo kills Juliet's cousin in a duel, and in the morning he is
forced to leave her. If he ever returns to the city, he will be put to death.

Juliet's parents told her she must marry Paris. Her parents do not know she is
already married. She refuses in the beginning, but later agrees because she plans
to fake her death and escape to be with Romeo forever; again with the help of
Friar Laurence.

Frair Laurence designs the plan. He gives Juliet a sleeping potion. She appears to
be dead and was put in a tomb. However, Romeo does not know about the plan,
visits her grave, thinks she is dead, and kills himself. When Juliet finally wakes up,
she discovers that Romeo is dead and then kills herself.
