Instructions: Using the textbook, An Examined Life: Critical Thinking and Ethics Today, provide real world
examples of 3 of the fallacies listed in chapter 16.
For example, the Appeal to Nature- if one claims that anything that is natural, is good (
or better than something else) then they may be committing the fallacy of appeal to
nature.
An example of this is a show on Discovery channel called , Naked and Afraid. On the
show survivalists spend 21 days in remote locations without anything- including clothes.
Few, even those participating on the show, would argue that using clothing (which is
technically, unnatural) is inherently bad because it is not natural.
