================================================ Subject: fallacies. From: "Creed - 7M3 - Live" To: Date: Thu 9 Aug 2001 19:08:55 -0400 ================================================ Kevin, By the definition of fallacy, I don't feel that it was the proper word to use. Nothing that I stated was intentional deception. Rather it was relaying what I heard about MS and thier OSes. .... Usage: Fallacy, Sophistry. A fallacy is an argument which professes to be decisive, but in reality is not; sophistry is also false reasoning, but of so specious and subtle a kind as to render it difficult to expose its fallacy. Many fallacies are obvious, but the evil of sophistry lies in its consummate art. ``Men are apt to suffer their minds to be misled by fallacies which gratify their passions. Many persons have obscured and confounded the nature of things by their wretched sophistry; though an act be never so sinful, they will strip it of its guilt.'' --South. Kevin L.
