Mastering Logical Fallacies

Sponsored by The Book, "Logically Fallacious," by Bo Bennett, PhD

Lesson 85: Introduction

In this section we explore fallacies related to the concepts of nature and the natural, including Naturalistic Fallacy, Moralistic Fallacy, and Appeal to Nature.

The Naturalistic Fallacy and Appeal to Nature are perhaps the two most confused fallacies. The names are not what is really important, but the meanings are. By the end of this lesson, you will know the difference—and remember it.
