    the way logic is supposed to work is that you are 1) supposed to be able to recognize when somebody is making an argument, 2) the argument is supposed to sound if all the propositions are true and lead to the conclusion championed by the arguer. A valid argument is supposed to be falsifiable, otherwise you get a tautology. So if one proposition is actually false the conclusion doesn't follow. But your conclusion doesn't follow from your premises. Do I pass?
