Erroneous Lessons in Logic

"Because of the fact, therefore because of the fact."

"No John."

"Ergo hoc propter hoc?"

"Where's your list of Latin terms huckster."

"Hey, Pele was confused too. He thought it was the shirt that was magic, made his team win."

"I knew them in high school--the Ilios program, then relearned them separately in law school, both Pepperdine and Santa Clara University School of Law.

Terms: non-sequiter logic, because x is true and y is true doesn't mean w is true, etc. Does not follow logically by induction or deduction that because x relationship is true, a related relationship might not create a domino-effect because the consequence might not follow from x as one might expect. Logic can help us discern, along with experimentation (science, logic, computer science, cognitive, HOMO DEUS, math), what logically can be understood as to follow from that variable [i.e. "y" ].
