First cog­ni­tive sci­ence, now logic: a list of log­i­cal fal­lac­ies.

A fal­lacy is a com­po­nent of an argu­ment which, being demon­stra­bly flawed in its logic or form, ren­ders the argu­ment invalid in whole.

I pre­fer the many infor­mal fal­lac­ies: an impor­tant one of which is that cor­re­la­tion does not imply cau­sa­tion (cum hoc ergo propter hoc); a favourite of which is the gambler’s fal­lacy.

Also: on logic, I’ve pre­vi­ously writ­ten about this list of para­doxes.
