074 - Begging The Question

Category: Religion & Spirituality
Duration: 00:35:14
Publish Date: 2016-04-20 22:02:44
Description: If you believe something is bad because it is...bad, or that something is good because, well, it's good, you probably wouldn't use that kind of reasoning in an argument, yet, sometimes, without realizing it, that's exactly what you do.

In this episode three experts in logic and rationality explain how circular reasoning leads us to "beg the question" when producing arguments and defending our ideas, beliefs, and behaviors.
