Fallacy List

FAULTY CAUSE: (post hoc ergo propter hoc) mistakes correlation or association for causation, by assuming that because one thing follows another it was caused by the other. example: A black cat crossed Babbs' path yesterday and, sure enough, she was involved in an automobile accident later that same afternoon. example: The introduction of sex education courses at the high school level has resulted in increased promiscuity among teens.

Labyrinth
In Greek mythology, the Labyrinth (Greek λαβύρινθος labyrinthos,[1]) was an elaborate structure designed and built by the legendary artificer Daedalus for King Minos of Crete at Knossos. Its function was to hold the Minotaur eventually killed by the hero Theseus. Daedalus had so cunningly made the Labyrinth that he could barely escape it after he built it.[2] In colloquial English, labyrinth is generally synonymous with maze, but many contemporary scholars observe a distinction between the two: maze refers to a complex branching (multicursal) puzzle with choices of path and direction; while a single-path (unicursal) labyrinth has only a single path to the center.

Coming Home: An Integral Christian Practicum
The other day I received the following email from David Riordan, announcing a 12-week online practicum lead by Leslie Flood Hershberger. I suspect that this will be of interest to quite a few who participated in The Advent of Evolutionary Christianity teleseries, especially (but not limited to) those who have found Integral Theory helpful or inspiring. I’ve met Leslie and she’s wonderful. And this program sure looks interesting and timely to me. Check it out!
