Logic and crooked logic.Logic is the method of inferring the correct or the relative truth, and the logical fallacy is an expression of a mistake in the conclusion, a mistake based on many fallacies, including deviation from the subject, and then on simplification and flatness, that is, moving away from argument and connotation, and only trying to support the situation with fallacies, even with tricks and illusions, more than excelled using those tricks and fallacies were clerics.
There are a very large number of logical fallacies, such as the fallacy of the man of straw or the fallacy of the red herring, and in these lines we will try to focus on the fallacy of control of ignorance, the essence of this fallacy is that something is right as long as no one has proven that it is false, and vice versa, that is, something is false as long as no one has proven that it is true and right, in both cases there is “absence of evidence”, so it was not possible to refute a claim, it is true!, The inability to refute is due to relative ignorance, relative ignorance is not evidence of anything else except that the party who has to refute the claim …. Relatively ignorant.
The universe is described by the most subtle qualities of accuracy, beauty and so on and then asks who created it!, The answer is usually and scientifically we do not know who created the universe, here the practice of the fallacy of control to ignorance, by saying that the Creator is the creation of the universe and what it is and what it is, an example of that is to say that there is no proof of the absence of Satan, so the devil exists !!!, and with regard to the earthquake, we know a lot about the mechanisms of its occurrence, but we do not know everything about it, so it is said that God is the one who escaped the earthquake on people in order to annihilate them, because they did not worship him as he wanted or wanted, all of this reflects the absence of evidence and real arguments in a relative or absolute, and the exploitation of the absence of evidence to support the assumption is not based on argument and evidence, when searching for something and not being able to find it is not evidence of its absence, and it is a fallacy to say that it does not exist.
Thinking of the universe and its creation depends on several hypotheses, including the hypothesis of chance or the hypothesis of the scientific physical or the hypothesis of the Creator of everything and the ability to everything, some deny the matter of chance or the hypothesis of the scientific physical, and confirms that he is the Almighty Creator, i.e., their God is the one who created the universe, and not the God of others.
Logically there are a lot of coincidences in life, and scientifically, many things that were mysterious were clarified, such as the mechanisms of earthquakes, then determine the area of its occurrence, even its strength, and why we are not likely in this case to know the clique of the Creator, who did not explain and explain one of the mysterious states of the universe, but rather raised the level of mystery with superstition such as the myth of the flat earth, and the myth of the stars and the seventh sky, then the duration of pregnancy, which reaches four years, and then the amount written, and the punishment of human beings in a style as described in the section of hell, those are mythical things, and yet the believers suggest the relationship of the Creator to the creation of the universe and man, because this story is present in the books, the writer confirms the validity of what he wrote, or the error of the religious people, the ignorance of the unknown, or the truth of the logic, he said
Some believe in life in the other world after death on earth, and it is not possible to invalidate this belief with argument and significance, because there is no one who died and we have seen it and we have been resurrected and talked about this issue, the inability to refute the resurrection for the believer is evidence of the validity of his belief or belief, that is, the proof of the validity of belief is the inability to bring evidence that negates this resurrection again, the origin in logic is that those who claim to prove the validity of their claim, this is the duty of the plaintiff and not the duty of the other, there are many forms of minds such as the mind of logic and the mind of faith and superstitious mind etc.
