In the following paragraphs I will be defining the fallacies and how they relate to critical thinking. I will also be providing a popular culture example for each fallacy to illustrate each fallacy. In conclusion I shall attempt to provide Pro ’s and Con ’s for each Fallacy. The first Fallacy I chose was the "Appeal to Emotion"
