********************

Samples from this week's logic lesson:
Evaluating validity: Cleverly worded arguments can trick us into believing that they are valid.  This exercise is to help Filia see past wording to evaluate validity.
12.  Champ is a dog.  Champ is not a dog.  Therefore, Champ is an invisible horse.
This is valid because one premise is false.

13.  Marge is famous.  Marge is not famous.  Therefore, Marge is an invisible horse.
This is valid because one premise is false.

14.  If Jim is rich, then he is famous.  If Jim is rich, then he is not famous.  Therefore, Jim is an invisible horse.
This is invalid because both premises can be possible with a false conclusion. *missed this one the first time around but was able to explain it after more consideration.

15.  Either Pedro will go or he will stay home.  Pedro will not stay home.  So, Pedro will go.
This is valid because all premises can be true with a true conclusion.

17.  Heidi won a prize in gymnastics.  Therefore, if Heidi is smart, then she is smart.
This is valid because the premises are true and the conclusion is true.  Missed this one.
