Exercise<\/h3>\n

Many times the only thing people dislike more than exercises their bodies is exercising their brains. It’s hard work. But the more you do it the easier it becomes. And the Christian Logic books from Trivium Pursuit help make it painless – perhaps even fun. ~ Me\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Fallacy Detective<\/h3>\n
\n

\"\"<\/a>What is a fallacy? A fallacy is an error in logic \u2013 a place where someone has made a mistake in his thinking.<\/p>\n

These are fallacies:<\/p>\n

\u201cA cloud is 90% water. A watermelon is 90% water. Therefore, since a plane can fly through a cloud, a plane can fly through a watermelon.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis new book, The Fallacy Detective, must do a good job teaching logic. It has been on the bestseller list for months.\u201d<\/p>\n

We wrote this book to meet the needs of Christian parents who want a do-able text for introducing logic and critical thinking to their children.<\/p>\n
