This category contains pages concerning Denying the Antecedent:
Let $p \implies q$ be a conditional statement.
Let its antecedent $p$ be false.
Then it is a fallacy to assert that the consequent $q$ is also necessarily false.
That is:
\(\ds p\) | \(\implies\) | \(\ds q\) | ||||||||||||
\(\ds \neg p\) | \(\) | \(\ds \) | ||||||||||||
\(\ds \not \vdash \ \ \) | \(\ds \neg q\) | \(\) | \(\ds \) |
