DescriptionA is an attribute of B. So A is an attribute of C. Take an attribute that is bound to a certain area and assume that it can be applied to a wider domain than was originally intended. ExampleA dog has white teeth, so the dog is white. There is money in my pocket, so there is always money in my pocket. DiscussionWhen we discuss an attribute of something or somebody, we implicitly assume that there is some constraining contextual factors. When the assumption is carried too far in this context, then this fallacy is committed. ClassificationAlso known asSecundum quid et simpliciter See also
