[SOLVED] Slippery Slope Scenarios

Discussion Questions: Below I have listed introductions to possible slippery slope arguments. Create slippery slope scenarios for the following; add at least three more conclusions (refer to the example of being late in the module 8 lecture): 1. If you get behind on one credit card payment… 2. If you fail the first test… 3. If you eat that 1st Oreo cookie… 4. If you decide to have sex with your boyfriend… 5. If you smoke marijuana… 6. I know you two have been together for four years, but if you don’t break up with him… 7. If you don’t eat a balanced diet… 8. If you take birth control pills primarily to clear up your complexion… 9. Relate to us an instance when you used the ‘slippery slope’ argument to convince yourself of a conclusion. As a second part to this exercise I want you to list five examples you’ve found in speeches or newspaper articles (especially opinion pieces) where the author ‘damns the source’ rather than present a cogent argument. Cite the source for each of these.
