Answer:
When writers or speakers use appeal to authority, they are claiming that something must be true because it is believed by someone who said to be an "authority" on the subject. Whether the person is actually an authority or not, the logic is unsound. Instead of presenting actual evidence, the argument just relies on the credibility of the "authority."
Examples of Appeal to Authority:
1. A commercial claims that a specific brand of cereal is the best way to start the day because athlete Michael Jordan says that it is what he eats every day for breakfast.
2. A book argues that global warming is not actually happening, and cites the research of one environmental scientist who has been studying climate change for several years.
3. Someone argues that drinking is morally wrong and cites a sermon from her pastor at church.
4. A little boy says that his friends should not go swimming in a river because his Mama said there were germs in the river.
5. A commercial claims that 3 out of 4 dentists would choose this particular brand of toothpaste for their own families to use.
6. My sister-in-law, who is a teacher, said that this school is not somewhere that I would want to send my children.
Answer:
The time my best friend <u>lied</u> to me.
Explanation:
This was long ago before anything happend to the world. It was just a normal school day. I had math, history, and science before lunch and recess. The day was going great before my best friend asked me if he could go to my house later today so we could hang out. I of course said "yes" But I wish I have never had.
After the school day was over, I came home to ask my mom if My friend could come over? She said, "yes, just make sure he cleans up after himself." I was so happy! After my mom picked him up, we played for hours upon hours, until he was hungry, (and so was I) so I asked my mom if we could have something to eat? she gave us some yogurt to munch on. We sat down in my living room, talking about the school day, and what we got for homework. Then he said " I'm feeling tired, and sick. Could you go get me some water?" I said "Ok!" I jumped up and went to go get my mom. I asked her what I should give him to help with his stomach. She got some medicine for him. After we got it, we went to go give it to him, when he was jumping around, playing with my cats! He then saw us and proceeded to act like he was still sick. After that point, he became my worst enemy.
P.S This was like 4-5 years ago. Everything happened when we were kids.
