Question

Review the given four short paragraphs. While reviewing the paragraphs, look for the logical fallacies in the paragraphs. Based on the logical fallacies you identified, rewrite the paragraphs such that they are free of the logical fallacies. Smartphone use is not making us smarter. For example, Alan could not pay attention to his family conversation at dinner last night because he was looking at his phone. That type of behavior is rude, and anyone who is rude cannot be smart. Humans were never meant to develop modern technology. That is why it is causing so many problems with our society. For example, fast food has caused an obesity epidemic. If we went back to how people used to live, we would be healthier and happier. Societies often have conflict between freedom and equality. These problems are caused by the fact that one can have either freedom or equality. Having both at once is not an option, so societies will always be in conflict. Evolutionary biology holds that people came from monkeys. I have never seen a monkey-human hybrid. Such a creature would be absurd. Because I have never seen one, they do not exist. Furthermore, because they do not exist, the claims of evolutionary biology are false.
