Logical Thinking

    In Logical Thinking, there is an argument such as of cause and effect. In cause and effect the requirement to build this argument are the cause premise and the effect premise. We also need to make sure that our argument can be very convincing by knowing the correlation between the cause and effect, the reverse of cause and effect, and how something can causing something, by knowing those short of thing we can build strong cause and effect argument. We can also found deductive argument in logical thinking. There are many kinds of it such as, modus ponens, modus tollens, and syllogism. Deductive argument is type of reasoning that if the premises are correct then the conclusion is must be correct, even if we reverse it the premise will keep correct. After learning those type of argument, there is a logical fallacy where people use wrong logic in responding an argument, such as ad hominem, strawman argument, appeal to ignorance, false dilemma, slippery slope fallacy, etc. This fallacy can be happen by accident or by a purpose. Reading News or Scientific research article can be really tricky because sometimes the author is playing their words and data to manipulate our brains to us follow what they want. that is why we need to learn about critical thinking so we can think logically and avoid those trap especially the logical fallacy that can be really dangerous.
