The reasoning in the argument is flawed in that the argument
infers a causal relationship when the evidence only supports a correlation
takes a condition that is sufficient for a particular outcome as one that is necessary for that outcome
infers that every member of a group has a feature in common on the grounds that the group as a whole has that feature
has a premise that presupposes the truth of the conclusion
constructs a generalization on the basis of a single instance
