Meet Red Herring- The logical fallacy that LOVES to change the subject to take the focus off of the actual point. Called a 'Red Herring' as a visual for a strong-smelling fish used to throw hounds off the scent, when someone is guilty of this fallacy, they are changing the subject, using irrelevant information to distract you, sending you down a rabbit trail you never intended. (Points to you if you can guess what Red's earrings are made out of!) Meet Character Assassinator/Ad Hominem- The logical fallacy that we see all too often that attacks the person and their shortcomings instead of discussing the actual argument. They love to name-call and accuse rather than actually face the real argument. Meet Self-Defeater- If they only knew how they sounded... This is someone who defeats their own position... BY their own position! The kicker? They don't even realize it. This fallacy fails to meet its own standard and cannot live up to its own criteria. (Shout-out to my 7-year old for letting me destroy her headband with a cheap arrow and to our pet chickens for lending some feathers. You a real one.) Meet Strawman- This fallacy just loves to misrepresent others' arguments because they're easier to attack than the real one. They end up arguing against a false or distorted version of the argument rather than the argument itself. Meet Gish Galloper- This fallacy is truly a magician of words, flamethrowing objections, questions, and arguments to overwhelm you, making it impossible to actually combat each argument in a reasonable amount of time. Giddy up. They have a false superiority of their position as a result. (Gish and Red are basically besties.)
this video is the best thing i’ve seen this year 😂 and I have many “character assassinator” commenters on my channel. even My own family attacks my character when I make videos about topics through a Biblical view. and you said the EXACT things I think such as: “do you have any thing to say about the actual topic or are you just wanting to attack me as a person?” I am always happy to hear constructive criticism, I would NEVER want to cause someone to stumble, But The approach isn’t effective and it’s isn’t productive to slam someone’s character. It’s sad, but we already know people won’t like us because they hated Jesus first!
Oh my goodness Miss Melissa! Haha! This video, was Perfect 🤩. You are Blessed! 💕... Thank you for the Time and effort , you put in To making your videos and not to mention all the research that you do to share with your viewers…
I have run into the Red Herring a lot when discussing the Kyle Rittenhouse case. "If he had been black . . ." It has nothing to do with the innocence or guilt of the event, but is used as an argument. SMH.
🤣 Honestly if there was an anti-Christ squad of religious spirits, all these would be accurate, always showing up to attack when the truth is presented 🤦🏽♀️
I have a question. It's about Jesus being a descendant of David but Mary is not David's descendant, Joseph is but he is not Jesus biological child. If Mary wS I direct descendant of David then that would make Jesus a direct descendant of King David. Pls direct me or explain it to me. This question never really came up to me with any thought but now I want to understand better. Thank you
Seriously, you can give them the proof and evidence that they ask for and still reply with a " you don't have any evidence" or " that's not enough evidence" and I just face palm myself. BUT... I shall pray for them.
@@RealAtheology 2 things: 1. the Bible reveals the heart of man. #2 the Bible also says that the heart is deceitful above all things. When you put both of those two things together and combine it with what scripture also says in Romans 1- that the evidence of God is clearly seen by all - we can know that #1 everybody deep down in their heart knows there's a God #2 those who say there is not, know it as well but are not going to reveal it to any Christian and will only deceive themselves when they try. We don't have to figure out what somebody else is thinking. The Bible reveals it for us.

Hi, Melissa. I don't comment much, but I watch most of your content. I thank you so much for being such an incredible role model. You're one of the few ministers I can share with my daughters without question, because I know it isn't going to be heresy! We desperately need more women to stand up and speak truth! You've taught us all a lot. Love your stuff. Thank you.
I love your comment sister! And I totally agree. I’m glad u have found a safe niche to share with your daughters. My son is only 5, so we aren’t quite to that point yet, but I hope we continue to get more strong females ministering for the blessing of us all. ♥️🙏🏽
You are one of many answers to my prayer for young Christians to rise up and obey God. I see more young people such as yourself doing what God has called you to do. God bless you!
This is so spot on with what I’ve dealt with every time I try to use reason and logic when defending the faith. It really does dampen my enthusiasm for countering ridiculous objections or even entering the conversation, which is sad.
Casting pearls before swine? You can tell pretty quickly if the conversation/debate is going to go anywhere. Sometimes I respond only in case someone else is reading and it provides as good oportunity to share truth. But many people aren't worth continuing conversations with as they aren't actually searching for truth.
@@0nly0NE. yes i use the Same tactics when arguing with e.g. Covid ignorants. Sometimes i have to write down some facts to share even If it probably IS a waste of time. Always a Matter of what is important
Those five illogical folks on this skit represents the internet trolls that many of us are dealing with when we post something that contradict someone's else's viewpoints or popular belief. Good video, madam
This is a great video demonstrating the truth of the verses in Proverbs regarding arguing with fools. It's a waste of time. They are not interested in the truth so shake the dust off your feet and don't spend time trying to get through to them.
Intro: definition of satirical (I'm from the UK and satirical is a basic form of communication) but great video. I always intoduce my friend (who was my best man) as the "only man to survive a brain removal and can still talk". That just bigs him up.
That was several steps up from the skit on Women's Bible studies, great job, Melissa :) I did start wondering, 'Which one of the five is Emma?' Then I see all five of them and I'm like, 'Ah, OK'
This was amazing, thank you! I’m most distressed when Christians use some of these tactics to support social justice and all the unbiblical conclusions it births. I’m learning to defend my faith thanks to your and others contributions.
I hear you man. I like, *felt* it when the character assassin came out because when talking politics with woke Christians, that really *is* their favourite tactic! (Maybe that's part of why it made me laugh so much too haha)
I have come ACROSS these types of characters too!! Sadly, some of these ppl. like to argue with CHRISTAIN'S, just to get them worked up!! I learned a long time ago, to not give these ppl. the time of day. Don't get me wrong, I can sense in my spirit when someone is truly being sincere when they are asking a question or posting what they were taught & those are the ppl. I will try & reach out to. 99% are just trolls, who just want to start a fight. IGNORE the haters. God gives us discernment on the true believers & when they need guidance. Great video as USUAL. God Bless.
I sooooo look forward to these humorous satires! They crush it every time. Your humor is amazing and makes the point every time. I'm still laughing from the other satire video of 1st Century Christian talking to Modern Day Christian! lol LOL lol😂🤣 You're brilliant, girl! ❤️👍
Hahaa hysterical. Also... I was gonna type the question asking about the red herring cuz I didn't know what it was and you answered it in description. Great job!!!
I actually take on the...whatever you call the multiple random points one. It's less of a fallacy, more of a strategy. "I'm going to dump a whole bunch of points and arguments in rapid fire succession and when you're unable or unwilling to respond to them all, I'll chalk it up to you knowing I'm right and that your view is stupid." The problem with me is I am one of those people who have no life outside of work and thus I am perfectly able to address each and every one of those random points. I actually find it fun lol
So you do exist! I always wondered about the the life of the other person…I can keep up with people for a while but eventually have to narrow things down or leave or else accept that I’m postponing my actual life to argue with a stranger on the Internet who probably won’t be magically convinced. Yes, I have kept friends waiting just to finish a paragraph. Yes, I do question my life choices afterwards. Yes, I do think the person thinks “well you must be stupid since you’re not going to take two hours to answer these 20 points in-depth with sources.”
I will share this with all of my internet. Thank you! I think it's good to have the internet to practice debating on. Maybe we can be more aware of how we do it in real life?
Wow! Did you just got the nail on the head in the most thorough way! It really is a headache isn't it when people use these kinds of arguments! Thanks for this encouraging video Melissa. ♥️
Oh Melissa I absolutely love this I was giggling 🤭 thank you. You have made my morning. And yes we run into these individuals a lot but didn’t know they had names. Thank you hope you have a blessed day
Thanks! You helped understand these characters better. Loved the skit and appreciated the written explanations you provided. I can see my former new age self in some of those goofy characters!
Once again, you knocked it out if the park, Melissa! I'm sure it takes a long time to plan, research and film these awesome satirical videos, but I'm so grateful you still go ahead and go through with them anyway. I so admire you for that and much more! Thank you, sister, for being such a blessing (and a smart shopper, 'cause I saw some great Dollar Tree stuff!)! You rock!!
Brilliant job once again!!! Its amazing how you can keep everything straight and each line and reaction in turn - my had hurts trying to think about it 🤔😂.
You had pegged me with the first character at the keyboard, Mr. Precise Overachiever, thinking people will read and change after an unassailable logical and factual presentation. Then I recognized from the scars of innumerable previous encounters all of the other characters. Yep, I felt right at home.
The amount of time and effort that you place into these videos..wow! So creative and the satire is amazing! Thank you for using your whits for our education. This was awesome! God bless!
I love these videos hahaha It’s bizarre cause I’ve actually talked to every person here, except red I don’t know what thats about lol and this isn’t exaggerated like I’ve actually had these conversations 😨 what scared me the most. I think this is the only satire video you’ve made that is not so crazy after all.
This was spot on! I sometimes read though the comments and I'm like...huh? How is that an argument or relevant to the post. Praise God we're about out of here. Thank you Melissa! God bless!! Maranatha 🎺
This is more like a conversation I have with myself everyday. 7:42 is definitely an example of what goes on in my head. Emma always wins in the end though ☺
Thanks, Melissa, for your creative way to demonstrate these fallacies. It's so helpful to personify each one...and entertaining too! I also like that you explained each fallacy in your comments. Blessings for continued strength and endurance to do what you do so well.
Loved this Melissa!! So well done as usual!! Thanks for this video. I didn't quite understand what all of these were and shown this way I get it now!! Lol!! Great job♥️✝️🙏
Melissa, this stuff is absolutely brilliant. (I'm a new "fan?" from like the last three days.) I can't even imagine how much it takes to script this out, make the video, have all the cadences work--it's tremendous. And that's without even considering the content which is so spot-on. Humor is a good way to express complexity. When done well there's really nothing like it. Absolutely fantastic!
That was good! Knowing all the different ways how people can distract you in an argument is very interesting. Thank you for leaving the descriptions of each.
Fun, funny, and informative. Learning to recognize the implementation of fallacy in general is more powerful than simply knowing the types. Understanding, for example, that fallacy doesn't mean false but poorly reasoned ( the fallacy fallacy). That "strongly argued" doesn't equal true, are not so easy concepts to truly grasp. There is great value in the function over the form. The form is easier to identify once the function is understood. Communication is ultimately the objective. To communicate effectively requires us to understand properly. Too often, I witness people answer an assumption rather than the subject matter. We can all learn to step back, and assess whether or not, we are also guilty of such idiosyncracy.

Called a 'Red Herring' as a visual for a strong-smelling fish used to throw hounds off the scent, when someone is guilty of this fallacy, they are changing the subject, using irrelevant information to distract you, sending you down a rabbit trail you never intended.

That was soo awesome! Thanks for creating that as it’s soo truthful of the arguments the world has about Jesé.
This was spot on! I sometimes read though the comments and I'm like...huh? How is that an argument or relevant to the post. Praise God we're about out of here. Thank you Melissa! God bless!! Maranatha 🎺
Love the content and great job of editing!
Now this was sooo good....very informative, and enjoyed the way you did it...you sweet girl are so gifted🙆👍💞
It had to take you so long to write this all out, and think through the individual responses, and then cut it all together. Great work Mel!
You, little sister are a gem.
Blessings, grace and peace to you and yours...and watch out for suction cup arrows.
LOL! That was awesome...I'm crying...LOL I needed that today!
Hello how are you doing hope you're safe over there👐👏👏
This is more like a conversation I have with myself everyday. 7:42 is definitely an example of what goes on in my head.
Emma always wins in the end though ☺
This has me laughing out loud, brilliant, I needed this today! Lol
Thank you Melissa!!
Thanks, Melissa, for your creative way to demonstrate these fallacies. It's so helpful to personify each one...and entertaining too! I also like that you explained each fallacy in your comments. Blessings for continued strength and endurance to do what you do so well.
Loved this Melissa!! So well done as usual!! Thanks for this video. I didn't quite understand what all of these were and shown this way I get it now!! Lol!! Great job♥️✝️🙏
The most creative one yet! Love it!
Well done, it’s almost exactly as things and arguments happen
Learning with laughter! Thank you, the editing is perfection👏
Love these! So well done. Thank you for taking the time and effort it must take to compose. ...I also love all your other material. 😊
Melissa, this stuff is absolutely brilliant. (I'm a new "fan?" from like the last three days.) I can't even imagine how much it takes to script this out, make the video, have all the cadences work--it's tremendous. And that's without even considering the content which is so spot-on. Humor is a good way to express complexity. When done well there's really nothing like it. Absolutely fantastic!
Absolutely brilliant Melissa! Very cleverly put together. I really enjoyed it as it is so true yet so funny as well. Well done young lady!
This is genius!!
You are brilliant AND hilarious Melissa.
LOVE your videos and I always learn things
That was good! Knowing all the different ways how people can distract you in an argument is very interesting. Thank you for leaving the descriptions of each.
The pitchfork in the background, nailed it!
Fun, funny, and informative.
Learning to recognize the implementation of fallacy in general is more powerful than simply knowing the types. Understanding, for example, that fallacy doesn't mean false but poorly reasoned ( the fallacy fallacy). That "strongly argued" doesn't equal true, are not so easy concepts to truly grasp. There is great value in the function over the form. The form is easier to identify once the function is understood.
Communication is ultimately the objective. To communicate effectively requires us to understand properly. Too often, I witness people answer an assumption rather than the subject matter. We can all learn to step back, and assess whether or not, we are also guilty of such idiosyncracy.
Amen! Preach!
