[QUOTE="BudJohnson, post: 1432339, member: 5009"] I didn't study logic until college, and that was only because I was a philosophy major. No one in my circle of friends, no one with whom I work or go to church has studied logic formally. That doesn't mean they aren't intelligent; many of them are. They merely haven't been trained in the art and science of thinking and reasoning. Your going to find fallacies on message boards, because the majority of people aren't trained to reason. And even those of us who are trained in logic aren't perfect - we're going to make mistakes too! I wish logic were taught in high schools as a staple subject, like English and mathematics (Math is a form of logic, but that's another matter.). Of course, I wish some high schools would just make sure all their graduates can [i]read[/i] (but that too is another matter.). - Bud [/QUOTE]
