I need help identifying the following fallacies?

1. We can recognize that athletes that participate in sports must be given special consideration within our grading system, or we can let the university sink into athletic oblivion.








2. I don't know what colleges are teaching these days! I have just received a letter of application from a young man who graduated from the state university last June. It was a wretched letter--badly written, with elementary errors in spelling, punctuation, and grammar. The state university does not deserve the tax support that it is getting.








3. All right-thinking people will support the Board of Education's decision to destroy novels in the school libraries that are offensive to the moral standards of the community. If there were an epidemic of typhoid, the health authorities would be expected to do everything in their power to wipe it out. Pornography is worse than typhoid, since it corrupts the minds and morals of the young, not just their bodies. The school board is to be applauded for their prompt action in wiping out this moral disease.








4. Despite endless efforts, no one has been able to prove that God exists; we may just as well stop trying and accept the truth: there is no God.








5. Alicia started gaining more weight than ever when she started taking Slimdown; the stuff must be fattening!








6. No sensible person would support the Equal Rights Amendment. If it were to pass, we would have women in combat and unisex bathrooms. Eventually, we would not even be able to tell the women from the men!








7. How can Clinton be leading this country! He's a draft-dodging, pot-smoking, womanizer!!








8. Michael Jordan wore that brand, so those must to be the best basketball shoes.








9. The difference in the outcome was Jefferson's missed field goal. If he had put it through, we'd be going to the Super Bowl.








10. Don't ignore the woman who gave you birth, raised you, loved you then, and loves you still. Remember your mom on Mother's Day.








11. So what if I didn't claim all of the money I earned on my taxes? Lots of people underreport their income.








12. That's gotta be a great line of clothes. Have you seen the prices and the people endorsing it?

I need help identifying the following fallacies?
1. False dilemma





2. Hasty generalization.





3. False analogy





4. ad ignorantum





5. Post hoc ergo propter hoc





6. slippery slope (which is not the same or a similar fallacy to the 'black and white' fallacy - despite what you might read elsewhere. The 'black and white' fallacy is similar to 'false dilemma'. The list must have a mistake).





7. Attacking the person





8. Appeal to authority





9. Contrary-to-fact hypothesis





10. Appeal to emotion





11. Two wrong





12. non sequitur
Reply:12. Just because someone famous endorses a product or the company charges double or triple for a product, it doesn't mean it's a great product.





11. If other people do something, that doesn't make it right. If those people jumped off a bridge, would you follow?





10. As a mother, I don't see the fallacy here. But based on my niece's life, I'd have to add that some mothers don't deserve jacksh*t just based on the fact that they gave birth. My ex-sister-in-law has been in and out of rehab so many times, they have a room for her, I'm sure. She never took care of any of her kids.





9. The difference IN POINTS may be Jefferson's missed field goal, but in reality, it could be the missed 1st down in the 1st quarter, or the interception in the 2nd quarter, or a host of other things in the game.





8. See #12 - celebrity endorsements doesn't mean it's a better product





That's all I got for now.
