Fallacy (false) A fallacy is something that is stated as a fact, but it is just not true. Or maybe it’s just an opinion. Metaphors – uses different words to describe something else (ex: It’s raining cats and dogs = it’s raining really hard). IF you see metphors, write what it actually means and then figure out if it is a fact, opinion, or a fallacy.
Worship one God – our God- Fact “Allah” Roots to Ishmael – fact – but yet to be proven Polygamy – Fact – but we don’t know yet. Wasn’t mentioned in the video Conquered many lands – fact All Muslim men have beards – fallacy Muhammad died in 632 – fact They think Islam should be the only religion – Opinion because not all Muslims think that Islam should be the only religion. But maybe their faith states that it is the best religion. We need to research. Muhammad is the most important person – fact They are very extremist – OPINION because not all of them are – it’s actually just a minority.
