Do you like conditional syllogism?
It is very simple form of logic, and its also cute.
Let me give you an example.
If it rains today, then I will bring an umbrella.
It rains today.
I will bring an umbrella.
Let me give you another example
If prices went up, I will buy less.
Prices went up.
I will buy less.
Or in the form of an argument
If gay people arent harming anyone, then gay people should not be harmed.
Gay people arent harming anyone.
Gay people should not be harmed.
So it is simple despite the complicated name.
Conditional syllogism is useful in an argument, as it lets you establish a link between two sentences.
If sentence 1 is true, then sentence 2 is true.
Sentence 1 is true.
Sentence 2 is true.
