User: Persuading or convincing other to accept your agrument means the reasoning must be logical. which is an example of a logical flaws or fallacies

Weegy: There is a lot of debate on the net. Unfortunately, much of it is of very low quality. [ [ The aim of this document is to explain the basics of logical reasoning, and hopefully improve the overall quality of debate. The Concise Oxford English Dictionary defines logic as "the science of reasoning, proof, thinking, or inference." Logic will let you analyze an argument or a piece of reasoning, and work out whether it is likely to be correct or not. You don't need to know logic to argue, of course; but if you know even a little, you'll find it easier to spot invalid arguments. There are many kinds of logic, such as fuzzy logic and constructive logic; they have different rules, and different strengths and weaknesses. This document discusses simple Boolean logic, because it's commonplace and relatively easy to understand. When people talk about something being "logical," they usually mean the type of logic described here. What logic isn't It's worth mentioning a couple of things which logic is not. First, logical reasoning is not an absolute law which governs the universe. Many times in the past, people have concluded that because something is logically impossible (given the science of the day), it must be impossible, period. It was also believed at one time that Euclidean geometry was a universal law; it is, after all, logically consistent. Again, we now know that the rules of Euclidean geometry are not universal. Second, logic is not a set of rules which govern human behavior. Humans may have logically conflicting goals. For example: John wishes to speak to whoever is in charge. The person in charge is Steve. Therefore John wishes to speak to Steve. Unfortunately, John may have a conflicting goal of avoiding Steve, meaning that the reasoned answer may be inapplicable to real life. This document only explains how to use logic; you must decide whether logic is the right tool for the job. ] ]

An example of a logical flaw or fallacy is “ad hominem,” which attacks the person instead of addressing their argument.
