Usage : {
Fallacy }, {
Sophistry }.
A fallacy is an argument which professes to be decisive ,
but in reality is not ;
sophistry is also false reasoning ,
but of so specious and subtle a kind as to render it difficult to expose its fallacy .
Many fallacies are obvious ,
but the evil of sophistry lies in its consummate art . "
Men are apt to suffer their minds to be misled by fallacies which gratify their passions .
Many persons have obscured and confounded the nature of things by their wretched sophistry ;
though an act be never so sinful ,
they will strip it of its guilt ." --
South .
