The so called "Slippery Slope"
Their is such thing as a slippery slope.
Reasons to agree
- Yes, the slippery slope argument gets over-used, but it is still true. No you should not use the slippery slope argument to defeat something that is good, just because it could lead to something that is wrong. But it should be used to defeat something that really is wrong, but not too difficult to live with, that will most likely lead to something very difficult to live with.
Reasons to disagree
- People often use the slippery slope argument when they want to change the debate from the mater at hand, to an extreme case where they are obviously right.
