Astrotastic!: The 10 Commandments of Logical Fallacies:

ladyatheist:

1. Thou shall not attack the person’s character, but the argument. (Ad hominem)

2. Thou shall not misrepresent or exaggerate a person’s argument in order to make them easier to attack. (Straw man fallacy)

3. Thou shall not use small numbers to represent the whole. (Hasty generalization)

4. Thou shall not argue thy position by assuming one of its premises is true. (Begging the question)

5. Thou shall not claim that because something occurred before, it must be the cause. (Post Hoc/False cause)

6. Thou shall not reduce the argument down to two possibilities. (False dichotomy)

7. Thou shall not argue that because of our ignorance, claim must be true or false. (Ad ignorantum)

8. Thou shall not lay the burden of proof onto him that is questioning the claim. (Burden of proof reversal)

9. Thou shall not assume “this” follows “that” when it has no logical connection. (Non sequitur)

10. Thou shall not claim that because a premise is popular, therefore it must be true. (Bandwagon fallacy)

Maryland Deathfest Portrait, No. 1: Meet Jordan, John and Dave from Atlanta, Georgia. These dudes discovered a shared love of metal in a nerdy fraternity at Georgia Tech, which is about the nerdiest thing I’ve ever heard. (Go Dawgs, by the way.) They’re all working their ways up through physics and computers… things I don’t pretend to understand. But mostly, they came to MDF to see Electric Wizard.

All weekend long, Lars has met and been introduced to all sorts of awesome people at Maryland Deathfest, so he decided to ask them really basic questions about why they love metal, how they got into it and what they do support it.

You can follow the Maryland Deathfest Portrait series on his blog.

RHODES! you’re on npr you delightful soul.

everyone, the guy on the far right is great/super metal.
