Unreferenced date November 2007 The logical fallacy of affirming a disjunct also known as the fallacy of the alternative disjunct or a false exclusionary disjunct occurs when a deductive logic deductive argument takes the following logical form A or B A Therefore, it is not the case that B Or in logical operators math p vee q math math p math math vdash math math q math Where math vdash math denotes a logical assertion . Explanation The fallacy lies in concluding that one disjunction disjunct must be false because the other disjunct is true in fact they may both be true. This results from or being defined inclusively rather than exclusively. Affirming the disjunct should not be confused with the valid form known as the disjunctive syllogism . Example The following argument indicates the invalidity of affirming a disjunct Max is a cat or Max is a mammal. Max is a cat. Therefore, Max is not a mammal. This inference is invalid. If Max is a cat then Max is also a mammal. Remember or is defined in an inclusive sense not an exclusive sense. The car is red or the car is large. The car is red. Therefore, the car is not large. The above example of an argument also demonstrates the fallacy.

In linguistics , a disjunct is a type of adverbial adjunct grammar adjunct that expresses information that is not considered essential to the sentence it appears in, but which is considered to be the speaker s or writer s attitude towards, or descriptive statement of, the proposition al content of the sentence, expressing, for example, the speaker s degree of truthfulness or his manner of speaking. ref Brinton, Laurel J. and Brinton, Donna, The Linguistic Structure of Modern English John Benjamins Publishing Company, 29 Jul 2010, p. 219. http books.google.co.uk books?id Q3uY9Ie0jWgC&pg PA219&dq disjunct adverb&hl en&sa X&ei kT8TT D EoH28QPxn4zPCA&ved 0CFsQ6AEwBg ref A specific type of disjunct is the visible anchor sentence adverb or sentence adverbial , which modifies a Sentence linguistics sentence , or a clause within a sentence, to convey the mood, attitude or sentiments of the speaker, rather than an adverb modifying a verb , an adjective or another adverb within a sentence. More generally, the term disjunct can be used to refer to any sentence element that is not fully integrated into the clausal structure of the sentence. Such elements usually appear peripherally at the beginning or end of the sentence and are set off from the rest of the sentence by a comma in writing and a pause in speech .

It developed a theological stance which was staunchly liberal in matters of inclusivity but traditionally Catholic in matters of liturgy and the centrality and theology of the sacrament s whilst believing that traditional restrictions on who may receive them should be re examined.

unreferenced date February 2012 Affirming the consequent , sometimes called converse error , is a formal fallacy , committed by reasoning in the argument form form If P , then Q . Q . Therefore, P . An argument of this form is validity invalid , i.e., the conclusion can be false even when statements 1 and 2 are true. Since P was never asserted as the only sufficient condition for Q , other factors could account for Q while P was false . The name affirming the consequent derives from the premise Q , which affirms consequent the then clause of the indicative conditional conditional premise. Examples One way to demonstrate the invalidity of this argument form is with a counterexample with true premises but an obviously false conclusion. For example If Bill Gates owns United States Bullion Depository Fort Knox , then he is rich. Bill Gates is rich. Therefore, Bill Gates owns Fort Knox. Owning Fort Knox is not the only way to be rich. There are any number of other ways to be rich. Arguments of the same form can sometimes seem superficially convincing, as in the following example If I have the flu , then I have a sore throat . I have a sore throat. Therefore, I have the flu. But having the flu is not the only cause of a sore throat since many illnesses cause sore throat, such as the common cold or strep throat . The following is a more subtle version of the fallacy embedded into conversation. A All Republican Party United States Republicans are gun control against gun control . B That s not true. My uncle s against gun control and he s not a Republican. B attempts to falsify A s Logical conditional conditional statement if Republican then against gun control by providing evidence he believes would contradict its implication.
