What is the best way to learn all the logical fallacies and to make sure you never commit one yourself?

Im a freshman in college trying for a degree in philosophy, however I have found myself on multiple occasions to use, by mistake, one or more fallacies. Disturbed by my lack of logical coherence, I would like to try and rid myself of all logical fallacies as quickly and effectively as possible. Is there any way to do this and be able to apply my knowledge to what I say and also be able to recognize when others commit a fallacy?
Answer: There are exactly 256 "moods" and "figures" of the syllogism. Of those, only 15 are valid. All the rest are a fallacy of one sort or another, sometimes just by breaking the rules of proper formation of syllogisms. Many of those fallacies have more than one name, especially if the purpose of using it is different from another purpose. So the best route is to learn the 15 that are valid. Anytime you see one that doesn't fit the 15, you know it is a fallacy. Then, if you have not already learned that particular fallacy you can go look it up. But at least you will know you are looking at one.

What are some logical fallacies that some atheists use to discredit Christianity?

Some atheists use Ad Hominem attacks, for example, when debating Christians. They may accuse Christians of being subnormal in intelligence, or accusations of dogmatism are made. They might quote Richard Dawkins, committing the appeal to authority fallacy. What are some other examples of logical fallacies used by some atheists to cast doubts on Christianity?
Answer: I am Atheist. I do not believe in an existence of a God, that is my stance on the matter. I find religion beautiful, I find the concept of an accepting God wonderful, but I cannot bring myself personally to believe in a God. What do I have to prove to you?

Answer: Your teacher might mean deductive and inductive fallacies. Logical fallacies might be expressions like "center around" (which is mathematically impossible) or "I could care less" (which has the opposite of its apparent meaning) or even "America: love it or leave it" (a false dilemma of artificially limited choices)? Unless this was explained in class while you were nodding off, I think your teacher is just showing off.

Why have Mercantilist fallacies survived for so long?

Despite the best efforts of Adam Smith and the rest of Classical economics, Mercantilism, governmental interference in the economy for the benefit of specific parties at the expense of others, was not relegated to the history books during the 19th century. Instead, Neo-Mercantilists emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, such as "Neo-Classical" and Keynesian economics. After the Federal Reserve, itself a Mercantilist program, caused the Great Depression by inflating the money supply, the Neo-Mercantilists successfully blamed laissez-faire for the Depression even though their economic fallacies were responsible. So, we have seen an unrestricted expansion of Mercantilism for the last 7 or 8 decades with no end in sight. Why have the discredited fallacies called Mercantilism that were debunked by Classical and Austrian economists survived to this day? Why havent they disappeared into the history books yet?
Answer: I don't think you can say Mercantilism dominates today's government policies and practices - in the U.S. anyway. But as with nearly all economic theories, some parts survive in some form. Some of the main government goals of Mercantilism are - positive trade balance - positive foreign reserves. Compare that to the U.S. today: - Huge Trade deficit - Huge government deficit with most debt being held by the chinese and japan. The Bush adminstration has said that "Deficits don't matter", a clear repudiation of Mercantilist fundamentals. Where are you seeing unrestricted expansion of Mercantilism?

Answer: Loki's Wager is a form of logical fallacy. It is the unreasonable insistence that a concept cannot be defined, and therefore cannot be discussed. Loki is a trickster god in Norse mythology, who, legend has it, once made a bet with some dwarves. The price should Loki lose the wager, it was agreed, would be his head. Loki lost the bet, and in due time the dwarves came to collect the head which had become rightfully theirs. Loki had no problem with giving up his head, but he insisted they had absolutely no right to take any part of his neck. Everyone concerned discussed the matter; and, one could suppose, they are discussing the matter still. Certain parts were obviously head, and certain parts were obviously neck, but neither side could agree exactly where the one ended and the other began. As a result, Loki keeps his head indefinitely. The fallacy's focus on over specification makes it in some ways the opposite of hasty generalization and could be considered an extreme form of equivocation. No true Scotsman is a term coined by Antony Flew in his 1975 book Thinking About Thinking. It refers to an argument which takes this form: Argument: "No Scotsman puts sugar on his porridge." Reply: "But my uncle Angus likes sugar with his porridge." Rebuttal: "Ah yes, but no true Scotsman puts sugar on his porridge." This form of argument is a fallacy if the predicate ("putting sugar on porridge") is not actually contradictory for the accepted definition of the subject ("Scotsman"), or if the definition of the subject is silently adjusted after the fact to make the rebuttal work. The truth of a proposition depends on its adequacy to its object ("Is the drawing a true likeness of Antony Flew?"). The truth of an object depends on its adequacy to its concept ("Is the figure drawn on the paper a true triangle?"). Problems arise when the definition of the concept has no generally accepted form, for example when it is vague or contested. "A true Scotsman" (a concept) is not on the same level as "a true triangle" (a concept) never mind "the true Antony Flew" (a concrete existing object). The formal similarity, "true X", and the corresponding feeling that the concepts should be on the same level, in some sense must be on the same level (even perhaps all exist as objects), motivates the fallacy. It is short step from that feeling to treating one's own definition of a "true Scotsman" (who else's?) as having the same objectivity as that of a geometrical figure or an existing individual, and then attempting to make the world agree. Some elements or actions are clearly contradictory to the subject, and therefore aren't fallacies. The statement "No true vegetarian would eat a beef steak" is not fallacious because it follows from the accepted definition of "vegetarian": Eating meat, by definition, disqualifies a (present-tense) categorization among vegetarians, and the further value judgement between a "true vegetarian" and the implied "false vegetarian" cannot likewise be categorized as a fallacy, given the clear disjunction. Alternatively, if a statement in the "no true Scotsman" form is not intended as an empirical argument, but as the conclusion to an argument about definition, then is not a fallacy. The statement "No true Marxist would support the Soviet invasion of Hungary because the basic goal of Marxism is the self-emancipation of the working class" may or may not be true, but it is not an instance of the "no true Scotsman" fallacy. However, the first half of the statement could easily be made fallacious by slightly varying the context. Using the context of culture, individuals of any particular religion, for example, may tend to employ this fallacy. The statement "no true Christian" would do some such thing is often a fallacy, since the term "Christian" is used by a wide and disparate variety of people. This broad nature of the category is such that its use has very little meaning when it comes to defining a narrow property or behaviour. If there is no one accepted definition of the subject, then the definition must be understood in context, or defined in the initial argument for the discussion at hand. It is also a common fallacy in politics, in which critics may condemn their colleagues as not being "true" Communists, liberals or conservatives because they occasionally disagree on certain matters of policy. It comes in many other forms - "No decent person would" - it is argued "support hanging/watch pornography/smoke in public", etc. Often the speaker seems unaware that he/she is, in fact, coercively (re)defining, 'objectifying', what the phrase "decent person" means to include/exclude what he/she wants and NOT simply following what the phrase is already accepted as meaning. The argument shifts the debate from being about hanging/pornography/smoking and tries to make it seem that anyone disagreeing with the speaker is arguing for the "indecent". Ignoratio elenchi (also known as irrelevant conclusion) is the logical fallacy of presenting an argument that may in itself be valid, but which proves or supports a different proposition than the one it is purporting to prove or support. "Ignoratio elenchi" can be roughly translated by ignorance of the issue; "elenchi" is from the Greek έλεγχος, meaning an argument of disproof or refutation. Aristotle believed that an ignoratio elenchi is a mistake made by a questioner while attempting to refute a respondent's argument. He called it an ignorance of what makes for a refutation. This logical fallacy is sometimes used in an attempt to confuse or distract someone else intentionally. This is known as a red herring. This phrase is thought to have originated from the use of smoked herring fish to distract dogs following a scent trail. The herring's strong smell could obscure the real trail and lay a false one. A satirical type of red herring is the "Chewbacca Defense". This term is sometimes used in Internet discussion forums examples: Baseball player Mark McGwire just retired. Clearly, he will end up in the Hall of Fame. After all, he's such a nice guy, and he gives a lot of money to all sorts of charities. (Friendliness and charity are not qualifications for induction into the Hall of Fame, therefore they do not support the conclusion.) The premier's tax policies may be popular, but I suspect he had an affair and is paying the woman to keep quiet. The media should investigate that! (This is an example of a red herring, as the speaker attempts to distract from tax policy with the unrelated matter of the alleged affair. Note, however, that if the topic is the public integrity of the premier, instead of only his policy, this argument may be perfectly valid.
