I have 15 questions that are dealing with fallacies. Could someone please help me with the answers! The questions were on the front page when I last saw it

Not looking for anyone to give me answers... I am looking for a tudor for my Critical Thinking Class for an online university that I am greatly struggling in. Any help?

Would this fall under the Perfectionist fallacy?
2. Letter to the editor: “Andrea Keene’s selective morality is once again
showing through in her July 15 letter. This time she expresses her abhorrence
of abortion. But how we see only what we choose to see! I wonder
if any of the anti-abortionists have considered the widespread use of
fertility drugs as the moral equivalent of abortion, and, if they have,
why they haven’t come out against them, too. The use of these drugs
frequently results in multiple births, which leads to the death of one
of the infants, often after an agonizing struggle for survival. According
to the rules of the pro-lifers, isn’t this murder?”

Would this be a Poisoning the well fallacy?
3. In one of her columns, Abigail Van Buren printed the letter of “I’d rather
be a widow.” The letter writer, a divorcée, complained about widows
Who said they had a hard time coping. Far better, she wrote, to be a
Widow than to be a divorcée, who are all “rejects” who have been “publicly
dumped” and are avoided “like they have leprosy.” Abby recognized
The pseudoreasoning for what it was, though she did not call it by our
Name. What is our name for it?

Strawman?
5. Letter to the editor: “Once again the Park Commission is considering
closing North Park Drive for the sake of a few joggers and bicyclists.
These so-called fitness enthusiasts would evidently have us give up to
them for their own private use every last square inch of Walnut Grove.
Then anytime anyone wanted a picnic, he would have to park at the
edge of the park and carry everything in—ice chests, chairs, maybe even
grandma. I certainly hope the Commission keeps the entire park open
for everyone to use.”


Post Hoc?
6. “Some Christian—and other—groups are protesting against the placing,
on federal property near the White House, of a set of plastic figurines representing
a devout Jewish family in ancient Judaea. The protestors would
of course deny that they are driven by any anti-Semitic motivation. Still,
we wonder: Would they raise the same objections (of unconstitutionality,
etc.) if the scene depicted a modern, secularized Gentile family?”

Perfectionist fallacy?
8. From a letter to the editor: “The counties of Michigan clearly need the
ability to raise additional sources of revenue, not only to meet the
demands of growth but also to maintain existing levels of service. For
without these sources those demands will not be met, and it will be impossible
to maintain services even at present levels.”

Misplaced Burden of Proof?
9. In February 1992, a representative of the Catholic Church in Puerto Rico
Gave a radio interview (broadcast on National Public Radio) in which he
Said that the Church was against the use of condoms. Even though the
Rate of AIDS infection in Puerto Rico is much higher than on the U.S.
Mainland, the spokesman said that the Church could not support the use
Of condoms because they are not absolutely reliable in preventing the
Spread of the disease. “If you could prove that condoms were absolutely
dependable in preventing a person from contracting AIDS, then the
Church could support their use.”

Hi, sexystudent and Akingslady!

I can see why this thread didn't really go anywhere.

sexystudent, what were the questions that you were given and how did you answer them, please?

Akingslady, you piggybacked your question on sexystdent's thread. It would be best if you would start a new thread with what you're asking. This place doesn't operate the same way that a chat room does. If you want your question to be recognized as being your own, then you need to put it on a new thread.

Thanks!

Dogs are called 'Man's Best Friends.' Indeed, most dogs are friendly and
Pose no threat to who pet them. Therefore, it would be safe to pet the little
Dog that is approaching to us now.
