JLBE1643 | Thinking 101: Non Sequitur Logical Fallacy

In this video I address the all-too-common logical fallacy known as the ‘non sequitur’, whereby the premises given in support of a conclusion do not actually lead to that conclusion. By the end of this video, you will know exactly what non sequiturs are, how to spot when they are being employed, and how to avoid committing this logical fallacy yourself.
