Flaw Practice – Honey

Identify the flaw in the argument: “Marcella told me that honey is full of crushed up dog bones. So, I will never eat honey because I would never eat dog bones.”

Answer

This is a perception versus reality flaw.  One thing the LSAT teaches you is that you should never trust anyone.  Sure, it may be a little jaded, but it is great LSAT advice.  On the LSAT, you should never care about what someone says unless you know that person is an expert on the subject and you don’t have any reason to distrust them.
