With all the reports there have been lately about former footballers developing dementia, some people have tried to dismiss the claims of heading the ball being a factor by pointing out that many people develop it at their age anyway. That's like saying that smoking doesn't cause cancer because non smokers can get it as well. Put it this way, I'd be very surprised if there wasn't a link - after all, repeated heavy blows to the head over time surely can't do the brain any good!

How to outsmart this fallacy would be to point out that this is not a apples and oranges fallacy because how to interpret a argument is subjective rather than objective, which focuses more on the actual facts of the argument. For all I care, the Demon of Reason's logic is so out of place, this could be a ice and water argument

I'd like to see the Demon Of Reason take on the Straw Man Fallacy or Ad Hominem fallacy, especially the latter. I want to see how our demon friend here explains the flaws in using's someone's character to undermine their argument in a deeper yet simple explination.

The apples and oranges fallacy reminds me of one time when I was a kid when someone was trying to make out that Coke was the same as lemonade except for being a different colour, and as I didn't like Coke I therefore couldn't like lemonade either!

Wait, but their argument does not always assert that the cause is natural, sometimes it just puts into doubt that correlation of human activity to temperature rise is enought to prove causation.

People in the 1950s: there will be flying cars in the future!
The future: an animated demon explaining to animated people that climate change is human caused
