Is this a logical fallacy?What is it called when someone avoids giving a reason for an argument. For example: Person A: Well, this is just the way of life Person B: Why should it be or why is it that way? Person A: Why shouldn't it? Is this simply shifting the burden of proof? or some cognitive bias or something else? |

As you start to list properties that the animal lacks to justify eating them, you begin to realize that some humans also lack those properties, yet we don’t eat those humans. Is this logical proof that killing and eating animals for food is immoral? Don’t put away your steak knife just yet.
In Eat Meat… Or Don’t, we examine the moral arguments for and against eating meat with both philosophical and scientific rigor. This book is not about pushing some ideological agenda; it’s ultimately a book about critical thinking.

These are thought-terminating clichés. Vague, feel-good phrases used to discourage critical thought and make you accept something for what it is. Examples: "it's just the right thing to do!" "it's how the world works..." |
