@Illuminatus Messiah China's government controlled media has also been known to put its own 'spin' on news stories and cover up things that will make the government look bad. Censorship is not a good thing. The problem with rampant social media in the U.S. is not that it exists, but that people are not trained to recognize the differences between good, reliable, and verifiable sources and those that are not.

Human communication seems solely an exercise in persuasion based significantly on how we identify. Some people like to feel right, some people like to be the ones who decide, some people are conditioned to be contrarian, some people need others to see them in a certain light, others need to be liked, others want to be silly or add comic relief if they're uncomfortable, others want to connect and all of these motives mostly de-prioritize an accurate explanation of what occurs for emphasis on the way each conversationalist feels about another person or other people in their conversation.

Largely, personal bias, which is not so much a factor in Critical Thinking. Ideally, learning the fundamentals of Critical Thinking allows us to see past those intrinsic personal biases. Based on my observations, I've come to the conclusion that some people are simply not wired for Critical Thinking. For them, it is not something that can be taught or learned. However, this conclusion is my own personal bias.

Valid argument is if premises is true, then conclusion is true. 4. A deductive argument is--- a conclusion must be true. 5. The ampliative argument is-- conclusion probably true.

But isn't callingv someone a moron in the middle of a discussion about appropriate argument structure and critical thinking a bit inappropriate? Not only that, but it's self-defeating. Since you have set yourself up in opposition to atheists, I would assume that you are pro-theism in some way, and therefore would be more likely to want to convert the atheist or at least defeat their arguments. Putting "moron" on at the top of a comment when you have such a goal is extremely self-defeating and probably leads to an increase of the number of atheists discounting your arguments completely.

this broadens the word "argument" to not just be defined as a debate on who is correct over a situation. but looking at the word argument more SIMPLY and raw. because we are people with brains and have the ability to think and elaborate whenever a statement is made, whether it be by us or others. we always think of reasons we might be skeptical or what proof or evidence gives us the reason to believe the argument aka statement is true.

Like most discrimination's I find in philosophy the difference between an "deductive" or "ampliative" argument as given here, is illusory. The point is, in the real world you cannot say with 100% accuracy that Monty is in Beijing, or that he cannot get back from there in a afternoon; so both arguments are in fact ampliative. With mathematical formulae, there is always a chance that you just got your sums wrong, so the ampliative appliqué applies even here.

At either end of the spectrum there is absolute certainty that something is true and absolute certainty that something is false. When there is any uncertainty in between those absolutes, then there can only be an evaluation of probability. Therefore, it is more honest to say that something is likely or unlikely, whereas "belief" is an irrational and incoherent conviction about an uncertainty, usually based on personal preference rather than an objective assessment of facts.

4:56 depends on the context of the premises of the given example in the video. Premise 1: She can't stand Monty. Premise 2: She wanted to have a good time without the presence of Monty. Conclusion: Monty won't be at the party. -this could be a true statement and a valid conclusion. Since we could assume; Two possibilities: 1) She is the organizer of the party, and she has full authority over it. 2)Monty doesn't want to come either. Of course these are assumptions. However, as long as it is a possible reason, we should take into account all the possibilities only then we decide if the premises follow/satisfy the conclusion.

What I find is the phenomenon that keeps people from critically thinking most of the time is emotions, and/or intellectual laziness. I am quite amazed at the lack of curiosity of the average person. When you apply critical thinking, sometimes you figure out things that very few people understand, but if whatever that is you figured out is probably or certainly true, most people won't even consider the possibility that you may be correct because they heard a consensus opinion that what you are saying is not true. Whenever somebody tells me something that seems to make no sense, I try to be open minded and use critical thinking skill to evaluate the possibility that what they are saying might be correct or possibly have some truth to it. This is because I have used critical thinking skills and open mindedness to learn some facts about certain things that are true that most people don't believe because of propaganda, programming or a lack of critical thinking skill on their part...

Hi David, yes that's right (see my responses to Lucas D's comment above). I'm following the great American philosopher Charles Peirce, who used the term "ampliative" to mean "non-deductive" (as far as I know he introduced the term, but I might be wrong about that). Given this usage, inductive and abductive arguments are two kinds of ampliative arguments.

First argument stronger if she knows that Monty would avoid her and that Monty is aware that she will turn up.

Finally a good video on Critical Thinking, among all the BS that goes around YT.

A really nice introduction to critical thinking 🎉. Also questions and commands are not capable of being true or false, therefore are not statements.

'He's really shy and he rarely goes to parties.' The shy guy: 'Not true. I don't know about most parties 'cause y'all don't invite me.' 😆😆😆

great video! Can you talk a little bit about inductive vs deductive reasoning? How does that relate to ampliative vs deductive arguments?

You say we believe something bused on assumption. What makes sense and appears rational to the observer.

What if your conclusion is probabilistic: e.g., 'Monty probably won't be at the party.' Can that turn an ampliative argument into a deductive argument?

Is there an alternative to the word argument? Most of humans I know wouldn't define that word as 'a set of premises to establish a conclusion.'

Question: How do we determine whether the "premises" are true or not? What if Monty was not in China?
