Logic and Lack of Logic in an Argument
[ send me this essay ]
This 5 page report discusses the assumptions made in a hypothetical argument regarding Waymarsh State College who go to their state legislature to protest budget cuts. The “logic” used by the legislature in ignoring the students was that since only 200 students protested at the capitol, the remaining 11,800 students must not care about either the issue or their education. The argument presented does not follow the “rules” of a logical argument and presents a conclusion that is clearly not warranted. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Logic, Causality & A Thought Experiment
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page research paper that concerns a scenario in which an artist creates a work that incorporates two feathered wings gleaned from road-kill. The wings are left to dry, tied to a rafter and when the artist returns finds that they were not as clean as they appeared to be and were, in fact, invested as a pile of dead maggots lies below them. In cleaning up the maggots, the artist inadvertently steps on several staining the tile floor. At least, the artist assumes that the brown stains that will not clean up resulted from the crushed maggots and concludes "maggot juice stains." However, can this be proven and explained logically? The writer discusses Hempel's deductive-nomological model of explanation and designs an experiment to test the "maggot juice stains" hypothesis. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
