The statement does not violate any logical sequence. The lava is assumed to have cooled enough for one to touch it. Therefore there is no fallacy. |

I take it that A's response to B about the Newman comparison is the same as telling him that B committed a straw man fallacy because A never said such a thing (that A is mentally unsound or that he simply wants to show B a point are also possibilities). The point here is whether B is committing such a fallacy and I would say no because A never said an argument, to begin with. If B is guilty of anything it is simply not asking the right question (like "What do you mean by that?"). |
