I recently saw an add online that said “Being able to use AI is a critical skill for the future.” And I immediately thought, “No! Being able to use AI is not a critical skill for the future. Being able to think is a critical skill for the future.” And the people who are able to think are getting fewer and fewer. Don’t let this happen to you.
What will you get out of this course? You will learn the basics of traditional logic from a Catholic perspective. You will learn to organize your thoughts and put them into logical form. You will become acquainted with the three acts of the mind: simple apprehension, judgment, and reasoning. You will learn how to determine the validity of a syllogism and how to recognize fallacies. This class will prepare you to defend yourself mentally in the illogical world of today.
