Quick logic question about euler diagrams?
I tried to prove that the following argument is invalid by drawing a euler diagram here: http://i28.tinypic.com/4goin7.jpg
Are my diagrams correct?
Thanks so much!
ARGUMENT:
No human who is thorough is wrong.
All humans who are wrong are lazy.
Therefore, no humans who are lazy are thorough.

Your diagrams are correct, but the argument is invalid. Nowhere does it say that you can't have the red (thorough) and the purple (lazy) overlap - they can, so long as the red circle doesn't cut into the green (wrong) one.
