Why is it Important to Learn Logic and Understand Fallacy?
Hello again, dear Steemians!
In our everyday life, we use argument and logic to express our opinions or react to other people’s ideas and values.
What we know as common sense is the combination of our aptitude for thought and our ability to reason with proof and evidence.
But reason and logic are not easy to come by. In fact, the knowledge of logic is not something inherently hardwired into our brains, and one must seek the wisdom on his own to rid his life of fallacious beliefs or avoid falling into the trap and mischief of other people with whom he interacts.
Our mind is subject to mistake and prejudice. It is quite difficult to think in an unbiased way in the modern landscape of the world and our society in general.
That is why we are more than often mistaken with our beliefs and ideals without even recognizing the erroneous pattern of our thinking.
This is where fallacy comes in. Fallacy is any faulty reasoning or invalid train of thought in a construction of an argument. Fallacy is often deceptive, because it appeals to our sense of prejudice and compels us to see everything from a single viewpoint.
Here is a simple example used to teach about fallacious ways:
“John is different from David.
David is a man.
Thus, John is different from a man.”
What you saw above was an over-simplified example of fallacy. Now imagine if our complex thought patterns about universal truths were erroneous or somehow misguided. What sort of life would we live then?
Fallacy comes in many forms. Another common type of fallacy is using the bitterness of language to disregard one’s claims supported by logic. For instance, you make a claim with a proof.
A person who disagrees with you out of his own prejudice or benefits will claim that your argument is absurd, but fails to show evidence that supports his claim.
His influence on the other people present in the room, or the way with which he puts his words forward will eventually lead everyone to side with him.
That is a common fallacious move used in many arguments around the world.
The world of logic and rhetoric is massive and undeniably complex.
But if you give yourself the chance to study it, you will notice fallacy on the spot and use arguments to counter it and turn the tide of the situation to your advantage.
No one could deny that our thought is dismissive of logic because of our feelings and our emotions.
By learning logic, you will inadvertently put yourself in a better situation in life and make sure that no one takes advantage of your mind; an organism mingled with errors.
Logic is indeed a pathway to a better and more mature understanding of the universe and the laws that govern it.
A BIG HUG!

When we ask this question quickly comes to mind Why one hits one on his brain falls Mttaq logic! The logic is defined as the study of images of thought and the proper reasoning methods, and that the science based on mental laws leads to correct judgments. When one says: "It makes sense when one is described as a logical person, , And it is said that the logic of the matter, that is, he thought and decided in a logical manner, in a sound, rational and non intrusive.
It is not meant to learn logic is to study the course that is called logic and determined to students in different years of study, which students hate studying often and not for the tests and grades for what they studied, but what I put here is to learn the logic that changes the way you think and your judgment and your view of things, As a way of life and way of thinking, and before giving you some sources that you can begin to learn the logic of them let me arouse a little to learn by offering some of the benefits that will come back to you or some of what you will gain when learning logic
Anyone who learns logic can learn anything! Scientists consider logic to be at the top of science or the source from which science branches branches of human sciences (such as philosophy, psychology, sociology, etc.), natural sciences (such as physics, chemistry, etc.), which is "logical" in itself! Imagine simply that anyone who thinks about any science should think in a logical way. Otherwise, what he is thinking about is not true. It is also classified as a abstract science with mathematics, so it benefits you and makes it easier for you to learn any science from science. And any skill skills especially the sciences that rely on it mainly such as computer science, mathematics, physics and others.
Excellent review, my friend and you are right, only logic gives us an understanding of what is happening in our life and on our way to the goal. It allows us to soberly assess our capabilities and rethink our mistakes, which of course makes logic an irreplaceable quality in the way of achieving our goals and dreams! Thank you @chbartist
Oh yes @chbartist, I completely agree with you, logic is the best skill that can be very useful in analyzing what is happening, identifying errors and problems, with a view to further solving them. If we set ourselves certain goals, then logic is the best assistant for us!
logic Some information obtained by the human does not need to the realization of thought and the organization of intellectual processes, but once faced with this thing recognizes and knows and derive, knowing that one half of the two, and this information called the necessary information.
important post for logic For example, let's say that a person comes from a place where they know nothing about Assad, he does not know the meaning of the word Assad, he hears you talking about Assad, he can not imagine Assad and understand his meaning. He asks: "What is Assad?" He is told, , He knows it
Logic: A legal machine that keeps its mind in mind
It is an automated science that is used as a tool and a means to serve another science. It knows how to arrange the information that is present and stored in order to reach unknown unknown things.
Our need for logic
However, we note that this rational intellectual does not always affect, he may make mistakes in his perception and perception of things and concepts, or make mistakes in transmitting them to others. For example, he may ask something that makes a voice and responds knowing that it is a car Engine the hearer thinks it is a motorcycle, the origin of this error is the incorrect definition of that specific thing
It is not enough to learn the questions of logic to keep the mind from the error in thought, but it is necessary to observe the rules of logic and apply them correctly when needed to protect his mind.
Man needs to learn logical rules and observe them even in other sciences to understand or solve their issues and issues.
So called logic science "science server.
