Honestly, I must have observed all of these at one time or another.  A few are extremely frustrating because it is almost as hard to explain the fallacy as it is to fight in the debate.  Some examples are <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nizkor.org\/features\/fallacies\/burden-of-proof.html\">burden of proof<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nizkor.org\/features\/fallacies\/confusing-cause-and-effect.html\">confusing cause and effect<\/a> (seems easy to explain, just try with some people!), and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nizkor.org\/features\/fallacies\/straw-man.html\">straw man<\/a>.  I will admit that I have used a handful of these fallacies as well, but I usually know I am using them.  They are only used when I do not have quite enough evidence to back up my clain so I attempt to hoodwink someone with a fallacy while I think of better evidence.  If someone catches me in the fallacy, now I can give an offical term for the fallacy to show that I genuinely knew what I was doing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve spent so much time on this site now that I cannot remember where I came from to get to it (No, I can&#8217;t just hit back in my browser since I open almost all new links as a tab in Mozilla), but it was probably Slashdot.
