This gave me an "ah ha" moment even after reviewing all of the material provided by my instructor. Thanks for clearly defining the difference between valid and sound arguments.
I must say I also take issue with the idea that abductive is less probably than inductive and that abductive uses inference (but inductivr doesn’t). Inductive uses inference by inferring the conclusion based on assuming that what happens in the past is a predictor of what happens in the future.
I have to ask you: the men are mortal example - isn’t the first statement “all men are mortal” an inductive reasoning derived statement? So how can we say that the example is both sound and valid. I understand it’s valid as conclusion logically follows the premise, but to be sound it must be valid and premises and conclusions must be all true: but since we cannot assume the first premise is true, we lose the potential for soundness. Am I correct?
One of the best books for a wide overview on all major areas of Western Philosophy is - John Cottingham's, Western Philosophy an Anthology. Many different theories from all major Philosophers are included, snippets from their original works as well as a clear concise summary from Cottingham. This book will really enhance your knowledge on many different areas of Philosophy.
Induction was not properly explained. The deduction, however, was. Think of induction as having to specific premises to yield a general statement. For example if one has a basket of say 10 apples. If I bit one apple and found a worm and I randomly took a second apple and found the same, inductively I would say the (entire) basket of apples is rotten. 2 specific premises: the first apple I ate from the basket has a worm; the second apple I ate from the basket also had a worm. Therefore the basket of apples has a worms. Now notice the general statement although "general" has a parameter. In this case it woukd be the basket of apples I took the 2 apples from. So, if we were to say all the apples in all baskets have worms that would overly generalized and not be an induction. Moreover, otnwoukd be an illogical fallacy of "hasty generalization".
Thank you. And yes, after a day or so RUclips gives me the option to remove the black box but it doesn't happen automatically when I upload them. If you go back to the Miracles video the black box should now be gone.
@@baburali8230 it doesn't necessarily LEAD to uncertainty, in fact, if your finding was not repeatable it would certainly be false. The concept of certainty isn't a zero-sum game and in many ways can be subjective in and of itself because there are degrees of certainty. A person can have certain beliefs that are incorrigible but certainty doesn't make them indubitable. The reason I can be certain that a living human will have a brain is because it is a taxonomic definition. Sure, there could be a zombie apocalypse eventually but in that case we'd have to view it as humans can BECOME zombies. Until that first zombie baby is born and they become an evolution of man.

Yes I understand
XD
Well I don’t :
Yes me too I finally understood after watching three videos explaining this
This gave me an "ah ha" moment even after reviewing all of the material provided by my instructor. Thanks for clearly defining the difference between valid and sound arguments.
Me too. Within the first 2 minutes. I'm glad I found this video.
Learned more in this video then I did these past weeks in class.
Glad we could help :)
I read a bible thick logic book that talks about the same thing, and this channel was just introduced in a couple of minutes. Amazing
that guy in the purple shirt is a mood
Super clear and concise, I understand the terminology now. Thanks!
Pleasure, thank you for watching.
You guys are bloody legends
Thank you :)

Amazing video! Concepts well explained!
This videos help me a lot from the time I start watching them my grades in philosophy have improved a lot 👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼
So glad to hear this, we're delighted we could help. Best of luck in your philosophy course!

Thank you people for your good and clear work it help me alot........
Glad we could help :)
All circles are blue
And all blues is a song by Miles Davis
Therefore all circles are one mile
How do I make these videos
Great video!!! Keep them coming!
Thank you, don't worry, still a lot more to come!
i was having a panic attack before encountering this video, thx!
Glad we could help.
You guys have any book recommendations ?
Are you looking for fiction or non fiction?
Philosophy Vibe nonfiction but anything that will enhance my knowledge in philosophy is fine.

Thanks ❤❤
You're welcome.
thank you so much for this
You're very welcome!
identify the following as valid constant or variable and write their type if not valid then state the kind question name one
this is amazing! like watching cartoon and doesn't feel like doing assignment at all.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed. Good luck in the assignment.
Loved it!
Thank you :)
Awesome :DD
Thank you :)
Gracias
You're welcome.

this is aristotle's logic.
can you do mathematical logic?
bruh mathematical logic is built on aristotle's logic
@@bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz its the other way around i think
All humans are mortal, isn't that premise based on induction?
I’m actually wondering the same thing!!
Awesome. The Video still has the black border.
Thank you. And yes, after a day or so RUclips gives me the option to remove the black box but it doesn't happen automatically when I upload them. If you go back to the Miracles video the black box should now be gone.

The thumbnail is misleading.
The concept of invalid is ableist
p..plato is that you?
ete sech
like the videro but you could get a better animator and make the conversation more realistic sounding
So nothing that science tells us is certain
Biology tells us that if you are human you have a brain. The more recent a discovery is the less certainty there is. Things need to be repeatable.
@@justinbarnard8749 There is always the problem of induction inherent in the scientific method that leads to uncertainty regardless of repeatability.

Can you do this for white privilege?
I’ve struggled to come up with a sound and valid argument for it.
Vague claims
U should also have noted that deductive reasoning may lead to a valid but unsound conclusion if the premises are false.
I like these videos
Yes I understand
