Are theses sentence fallacious? If so which fallacies?1." How fathers are portrayed is of particular importance. Fatherlessness is one of the greatest threats our children face."
2. "The evidence is clear 'man as idiot' isn't going over very well these days." 3. "Among the many ills fatherlessness portends are much higher rates of teen drug abuse, crime, pregnancy, and school drop-outs." |

Claims are constantly being made, many of which are confusing, ambiguous, too general to be of value, exaggerated, unfalsifiable, and suggest a dichotomy when no such dichotomy exists. Good critical thinking requires a thorough understanding of the claim before attempting to determine its veracity. Good communication requires the ability to make clear, precise, explicit claims, or “strong” claims. The rules of reason in this book provide the framework for obtaining this understanding and ability.
This book / online course is about the the eleven rules of reason for making and evaluating claims. Each covered in detail in the book.

1. Opinion
2. So radical feminism is less popular? I'm assuming that's the source of "man as idiot". Opinion 3. This might be confusing cause and effect fallacy unless the data has a solid foundation. Those are my guesses. |

These are all just opinions/claims. No arguments are being made (no attempt to justify the opinions/claims) so we cannot evaluate the reasoning behind them, so we don't know if they are fallacious or not.
