Actually Laz, I think Kevin was spot on, you have at least 300 post on this thread alone and Kevin made a very fitting summary of your contributions. But I guess we could always take a vote
Fallacy: Appeal to Popularity (argumentum ad populum)Definition: A proposition is held to be true because it is widely held to be true or is held to be true by some sector of the population.
This fallacy is sometimes also called the "Appeal to Emotion" because emotional appeals often sway the population as a whole.
Examples:
(i) If you were beautiful, you could live like this, so buy Buty-EZ and become beautiful. (Here, the appeal is to the "beautiful people".)
(ii) Polls suggest that the Liberals will form a majority government, so you may as well vote for them.
(iii) Lots of my friends say that Kevin Curry is right when he spewed a lot of invective, bile, and complete mistatements about Lazamataz, so it must be true.References: Copi and Cohen: 103, Davis: 62
