Table of Contents

Introduction
Fallacy # 1, you can never be sure
Fallacy # 2, "there is no truth"
Fallacy # 3, there are no absolutes
Fallacy # 4, there is only physical-experiential reality
Fallacy # 5, philosophy is boring : I should know, I tried it once
Fallacy # 6, God does not exist
Fallacy # 7, isn't it a contradiction to say "God is good" when we see so much evil in the world, I mean with so many wars, famines, plagues, and whale hunting and everything?
Fallacy # 8, if God knows all things, even the future, then we are not free
Fallacy # 9, if God is all-powerful can He make a "PB&J" so big he couldn't eat it in one bite?
Fallacy # 10, man has no human nature
Fallacy # 11, my body belongs to me!
Fallacy # 12, the human person is a spiritual person and since spirits are neither female and male, our sexual distinctions are merely social constructs
Fallacy # 13, I'm free to do whatever I want
Fallacy # 14, don't force your ethics down my throat!
Fallacy # 15, you just admitted that there is a lot of divergence of opinon as to how we should act : therefore, there can be no universally binding law to govern us
Fallacy # 16, I know he shouldn't do that, but he's a good guy
Fallacy # 17, if it feels good, do it
Fallacy # 18, ...yeah, but it's my right!
Fallacy # 19, I vas just followink orders
Fallacy # 20, ethics are a personal matter, so what I do is my own business!
Fallacy # 21, it doesn't matter if two consenting adults are married or not, what counts is their sincerity
Fallacy # 22, the traditional family structure is arbitrary : actually there are many other valid expressions of this same reality
Fallacy # 23, I learned at my university that monogamy is an out-dated social structure imposed on us by a Judeo-Christian culture!
Fallacy # 24, no one's going to tell me how many children I going to have!
Fallacy # 25, I can do whatever makes me happy!
