Bulverisme


Bullying is the name of C.S. Lewis indicated what is actually a comprehensive argumentum ad hominem. This argument is as follows:

Origin

In Bulgerism or the Twentieth Century Thought 1941, Lewis sets apart the principles of Bulverism. Lewis claims that he will write the biography of Ezekiel Bulver who, in his fifth year, said his mother to his father - who just explained that two sides of a triangle together are always longer than the third - said saying "that just say, because you're a man ". At that moment, a great truth implied by Ezekiel: that you never have to refute an argument. You can only assume that your opponent has the wrong end, and then explain why he takes that wrong position. Examples Replacement

Bullyists, Lewis, saw the branch where they were sitting. After all, if thoughts are the result of subconscious complexes, psychoanalysis is the product of the complexes of Sigmund Freud. If ideas are a by-product of the thinker's socio-economic circumstances, Marxism is a product of the socio-economic conditions in which Karl Marx lived. With that, psychoanalysis and marxism would have nothing to say. The conclusion which, according to Lewis, has always drawn people with common sense is that some thoughts are not colored. Christian faith

Lewis was an apologist of the Christian faith. The essay Bulverism is an answer to the psychoanalytic (projection of desire for a father figure) and Marxist (opium of the people) visions of the Christian faith. Source
