 Re: anachronistic fallacy
Another really good term bites the dust. It is not flawed logic (that any good philosophy student could see through) that is being referred to.
non sequitur : a conclusion or statement that does not logically follow from the previous argument or statement.
It's like saying, a la Noel Coward's HAY FEVER "Hang on - that doesn't follow. How can my son be his younger sister's father?" |
