·       What the statement ‘This formula is unprovable’ says of itself is false, and then it is self-apparently false and yet true. This statement is unprovably provable.

·        Political marketing consultant uses an error-producing fallacy of analogy in politics in order to attempt to persuade people to transfer the feelings of certainty they have of a thing they are certain about to a thing they are uncertain about. People are swayed by the power of an analogy despite the dubious principle (that makes analogy undependable) that if two things are similar in some respects they are similar in some other respects because in most cases relevant differences outweigh relevant similarities.          
   Thing had not to be ethically justified to be logically justified  
·        I often heard people saying ‘we are talking about logical justification here, not ethical justification’ and could not make it out as to me a thing had to be ethically justified to be logically justified till I was confronted with a choice of testing drugs on animals before trying them on humans or trying drugs on humans before testing them on animals.  Testing drugs on animals before testing them on humans was not ethical but it was definitely very logical.        Strong but flawed
·        One says weak induction to demean the quality of an inductive reasoning because of his own particular world view that does not allow one to see that the conclusion is likely given the premises. Strong induction appears reasonable and logical but is potentially flawed interpretation of the truth.
