Appeal to emotion is a potential fallacy which uses the psychological and encompasses several logical fallacies, including Appeal to consequences Appeal to fear Appeal to flattery Appeal to pity Appeal to ridicule Appeal to spite Wishful thinking Appeal to ignorance Analytical assumptions Instead of facts, persuasive language is used to develop the foundation of an appeal to emotion based argument. Thus, the validity of the premises that establish such an argument does not prove to be verifiable. ref http mcckc.edu longview ctac fallacy.htm ref Unjustifiable Conclusively, the appeal to emotion fallacy presents a perspective intended to be superior to reason. Appeals to emotion are intended to draw visceral feelings from the acquirer of the information. And in turn, the acquirer of the information is intended to be convinced that the statements that were presented in the fallacious argument are true solely on the basis that the statements may induce emotional stimulation such as fear, pity and joy. Though these emotions may be provoked by an appeal to emotion fallacy, substantial proof of the argument is not offered, and the argument s premises remain invalid. ref Kimball, Robert H.

That s crazy This is, in fact, true, but the effect is so minuscule that a human observer will not notice the effect at speeds far less than the speed of light. Theory of evolution Evolution is ridiculous If evolution were true, that would mean that all the apes wouldn t be here any more, since they all would have evolved into humans This is not implied by the theory of evolution, thus the argument is false. This is a rhetorical tactic which mocks an opponent s argument, attempting to inspire an emotional reaction making it a type of appeal to emotion in the audience and to highlight the counter intuitive aspects of that argument, making it appear foolish and contrary to common sense . This is typically done by demonstrating the argument s logic in an extremely absurd way or by presenting the argument in an overly simplified way, and often involves an appeal to consequences . Appeal to Ridicule is often found in the form of challenging one s credentials or maturity Nobody believes in socialism after college Grow up. The argument is ridiculed on the basis that having a view commonly associated with youth is somehow invalid.
