Hi All,

I've been cleaning out my mailbox and found the list 
below and thought I would share them for fun.  :)
As I understand it, the following logical fallacies 
are/were in use at alt.atheism to refer to some of 
the debates that went on there.  Anyone care to 
give their English interpretations?

Example: 

* Argumentum ad popularium:

"I'm more popular than thou, therefore I am right."

     *     *     *

* Argumentum ad Smith & Wessum:

* Argumentum ad stupiditas:

* Argumentum ad mensa:

* Argumentum ad asylum:

* Argumentum ad Deum:

* Argumentum ad Unum:

* Argumentum ad Plonkium:

* Argumentum ad crematorium:

* Argumentum ad Triforcium:

* Argumentum ad pendulum:

* Argumentum ad Quotemarkium:

* Non argumentum:
