In logic and philosophy, an argument is a series of statements typically used to persuade someone of something or to present reasons for accepting a conclusion. The general form of an argument in a natural language is that of premises (typically in the form of propositions, statements or sentences) in support of a claim: the conclusion. The structure of some arguments can also be set out in a formal language, and formally defined "arguments" can be made independently of natural language arguments, as in math, logic, and computer science.
In a typical deductive argument, the premises are meant to provide a guarantee of the truth of the conclusion, while in an inductive argument, they are thought to provide reasons supporting the conclusion's probable truth. The standards for evaluating non-deductive arguments may rest on different or additional criteria than truth, for example, the persuasiveness of so-called "indispensability claims" in transcendental arguments, the quality of hypotheses in retroduction, or even the disclosure of new possibilities for thinking and acting.
William Frederic "Bill" Burr (born June 10, 1968) is an American comedian, writer, and actor. He is best known for his stand-up comedy specials. He is also known for being the host of Bill Burr's Monday Morning Podcast, playing Patrick Kuby in the AMC crime drama series Breaking Bad, and starring in the Netflix animated sitcom F Is for Family as Frank Murphy. In 2013, The New York Times wrote that Burr "has been one of the funniest, most distinctive voices in the country for years."
Burr was born in Canton, Massachusetts, to white-collar parents of German and Irish descent. His father is a dentist. Burr obtained a bachelor's degree in radio from Emerson College in 1993. Before starting his comedy career, he worked in warehouses because "if [his] boss gave [him] a rough time, [he] could just get on a forklift and just, like, drive away".
Burr's career began in 1992. He moved to New York City in 1995.
Since May 2007, Burr has recorded a weekly one-hour podcast, Bill Burr's Monday Morning Podcast, in which he speaks about his past and recent experiences, current events, going on tour, and sports, and offers advice to questions submitted by the listeners. The podcast is available on Burr's website and on the All Things Comedy network. He is sometimes joined by his wife, Nia Hill, and has featured guests and interviews with other comedians.

This video reviews the 2 steps to evaluate arguments. I then explain how the vocabulary of logic is derived from this two step evaluation (e.g. valid, invalid, sound, unsound, cogent, uncogent, strong, weak, ).
Part 1 of the TechNyou critical thinking resource. The resource covers basic logic and faulty arguments, developing student's critical thinking skills. Suitable for year 8-10, focused on science issues, the module can be adapted to suit classroom plans. The resource is found here: https://education.technyou.edu.au/critical-thinking Transcript can be found here: http://technyou.edu.au/fun-stuff/videos/video-transcripts/ There are also two new downloadable Critical Thinking guides: A postcard-sized one: http://technyou.edu.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/DodgyArgumentsPostcard.pdf and An extended version for secondary school teachers: http://technyou.edu.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/DodgyArgumentsExtendedA4.pdf Continued in Part 2: Broken Logic: http://youtu.be...
This is a companion video to my Introduction to Philosophy class, Module 02 - Philosophical Thinking. In the video we discuss the components of an argument, evaluate valid and invalid forms, and cover validity and soundness. This video also serves as a replacement of my previous video "Introduction to Critical Thinking - Part 1." The "Introduction to Critical Thinking - Part 2" video is incomplete and I have no current plans to finish it.
We often ask why cant we convince people to prepare for shtf, or consider a conspiracy theory. Here are the reasons why! They argue strange points and cannot clearly or logically reason their way through a discussion and discover truths.
I Introduce the basics on what constitutes "inductive arguments" and deductive arguments" as part 1 of my introduction to logic and argumentation series. Key Points: *A deductive argument is intended to provide absolute and conclusive support for its conclusion. *A deductive argument that succeeds in providing conclusive support for its conclusion is said to be valid. A valid argument is such that if all its premises are true, the conclusion must be true. *A deductively valid argument with true premises is said to be sound. *An inductive argument that succeeds in providing probable support for its conclusion is said to be strong. A strong argument is such that if its premises are true, its conclusion is probably true. *An inductively strong argument with true premises i...

here we do 6 examples, 5 with standard arguments and 1 with a truth table. This should help you understand the types of logical arguments you are likely to encounter in your math class...and that makes us happy!! :)
in this video we reach the end of the road, logical arguments. Everything we have done was to lay a foundation for this important idea. Is the conclusion of the argument valid if the premises are true? So we use 6 standard forms and do a truth table example for logical arguments. In the second half, we see quantified statements used in arguments. So I lay the foundation for some examples. stay tuned!! the next two videos have worked out examples that will really drive home these concepts...and that makes us happy :)
In this video, Kaplan’s Jack Chase teaches you critical strategies for the LSAT Logical Reasoning section. The Logical Reasoning section tests skills that you will need not only on the LSAT, but in law school and throughout your legal career. In fact, the ability to see and understand complex reasoning is so valued by law schools and the legal community and is so vital to your success as a law student and future lawyer, that Logical Reasoning accounts for nearly half your score on the LSAT. So studying Logical Reasoning questions like the ones presented in this video is crucial to getting a higher LSAT score! It’s not enough to sense whether an argument is strong or weak; you’ll need to understand precisely why it is so. This involves an even more fundamental skill, one that’s called on b...

Anecdotal fallacies in under two.
In-depth discussion on logical fallacies. Logical fallacies are errors in thinking. Learning them will enable you to win more debates and arguments by protecting yourself from making them, and pointing them out when your opponent has. This discussion is for those in high school/college debate, those planning on going to law school, or anyone who plans to never lose an argument in the YouTube comments section. Mastering these fallacies will improve your chances of scoring higher on the LSAT.
