What Is a Fallacy & Why We Commit Them

A fallacy is a problem or an error in someone's argument. Most people experience fallacies in every argument because one person tries to always be right. There are several fallacies that can be used to achieve this, but people who don't understand logic can't see this clearly. It can easily be broken down for people to better understand that there are several types of fallacies and we commit them daily. An informal fallacy is a matter of unclear expression and usually involves things such as the misuse of language such as words or grammar and misunderstanding facts and opinions. Therefore the meaning of the argument is always proved irrelevant or false one way or another so these are always unsound arguments. We commit fallacies because of intent, careless mental posture and emotional disposition. The main reason we commit them is in an argument somebody will always want to win the argument and prove that they are right and that you're wrong. They will try to prove their beliefs are true so they will do whatever they can to make this happen even if they have to lie or use other methods. We commit them so frequently because we have hundreds of arguments daily just because it happens with normal conversations regardless if we want it to or not it's human nature for us to argue and to have an opinion about someone or something. The only way to stop arguments and committing fallacies is if people just thought one way and didn't have an opinion about anything, but that isn't going to happen.
