'''Liberal logic''' is an argument that has emotional appeal to a [[liberal]], but is nonsensical. Let's build a list:
'''Liberal logic''' is an argument by a liberal that is deceptively attractive to some, but is actually nonsensical. Here are some examples:
# belief that a [[correlation]] (e.g., between atheism and suicide) can be disproved by a poor [[counterexample]] (e.g., one atheist who remained sane)
# [[free speech]] for anything and everything ... except the [[conservative]] truth
# insisting that an [[atheistic]] culture cannot harm anyone, but also insisting that classroom prayer can cause harm
# requesting increased spending by government to reduce poverty, which actually poverty is increased by the dependency
# insisting on "tolerance" for anything that is anti-[[Christian]], while censorship for anything is [[Christian]]
# insisting that teaching [[abstinence]] does not reduce premarital sex
# denying that widespread ownership of guns, largely defensive weapons, can reduce crime
# insisting that increasing taxes must increase government revenue, when often people just work less and revenues then decline
