“What are fallacies? Can you spot them?” 

Logical fallacies — those logical gaps that invalidate arguments — aren’t always easy to spot.

While some come in the form of loud, glaring inconsistencies, others can easily fly under the radar, sneaking into everyday meetings and conversations undetected.

There are many different types of fallacies and their variations are almost endless. During our first autumn meeting, we are going to look through some of the most common fallacies and will try with examples to develop sound conclusions ourselves, and quickly identify fallacies in others’ writings and speeches.

For a better understanding of the world of information that surrounds us every day, It is important to take with a pinch of salt what the media, politicians, social media, and different TV pundits are saying and to notice contradictions and fallacies
