In our everyday conversations and arguments, we often run into some common thinking mistakes that make it hard to talk things through. These mistakes include:
Ad Hominem: This happens when someone attacks the person instead of talking about their argument.
Straw Man: This is when someone misrepresents what the other person is saying to make it easier to argue against them.
Appeal to Ignorance: This means saying something is true just because no one has proven it wrong.
These thinking mistakes can really mess up our discussions because they twist our reasoning and hide the truth.
To overcome these issues, we need to think carefully and really try to engage with each other’s arguments in an honest way.
By creating an environment where we question and analyze our own beliefs, we can tackle the tricky parts of reasoning and make our conversations better!
